Hippos in the river

Rhinos on the plain

Straight jackets for the crazy

Cigars for the insane

Beer on every corner

Strangers on the bus

All we’re really looking for

Is someone just like us.

Cheat on psychometric scores

Failed alcoholic test

Write all night ’till 2 am

Then ignore the guests

Crazy if I take my pills

Crazier if I don’t

Mad to sit around the house

Stupid if I don’t.

Wondering where the hell I fit

After 30 years again

Hippos in the river

Rhinos on the plain.
