lyrics

The Duckling of Our Love

If I was a giraffe, I would look into your window,
And that would be okay,
Because giraffes aren’t attracted to humans,
Or at least that’s what I’d say.

If I was a snail I would leave a slimy trail on your face at night,
And that would be okay,
Because snails don’t know any better.

If I was a donkey I’d carry your potatoes.
If I was a moth I would lay eggs in your clothes.
If I was a centipede I’d live in your garden under a stone,
And sneak under your carpet in the evening.

If I was a turkey I would climb into your oven,
And it would be okay
For you to eat me because I’d be a turkey.

If I was a leopard I wouldn’t attack you.
If I was a louse I would live in your hairdo.
If I was a duck I would lay you an egg,
And that egg would hatch
Into the duckling of our love,
The duckling of our love,
Unless you ate it.
