Daffy Duck - Daffy Duck's Rhapsody Lyrics
Greetings!My name is DaffyThere's no other duck like meBecause I'm so daffyAnd the reason I'm daffyAnd so gosh-derned riff-raffyAnd so screwy and laffyIs because those hunters won't leave me aloneOh, why don't they hunt some other animal for a changeSo, that I won't have to end up on a kitchen rangeBut no, duck hunting's all the rage and they won't let me beAnd I'm so full of bullets, I'm lit up like a Christmas treeThere's so much I'd like to do if I just had the chanceI'd like to play and romp and even sing and do a danceI would read the latest bookGo swimming in the babbling brookI'd like to fly the seven seasPlay hide and seek among the treesI'd play hop scotch and double dutchAnd this and that and things and suchI know that isn't asking muchBut all these things I daresn't touchIt's bang! bang! here, and bang! bang! thereBullets flying everywhereI can't stand it any longerI get weak and they get strongerHunters to the right of meHunters to the left I seeOver hill and over daleBullets whizzing past my tailThere's no rest and there's no peaceWon't this shooting ever ceaseMorning, noon, and through the nightThat's why I look such a frightBANG! BANG! BANG!I'm only sixteen yards aheadBANG! BANG! BANG!They're shooting straight at meHOO! HOO! HOO!They won't let up until I'm deadHOO! HOO! HOO!Why can't they let me be!Why don't they hunt big wild mooseOr chase a Ranger on the looseThere's possums, chipmunks, caribouOr rabbits for a rabbit stewRats and squirrels, porcupinesMonkeys swinging on the vinesLeopards with or without spotsWild cats with or without dotsElephants, badgers, kangaroosLions, tigers, cows that mooWolf and mice and praire oxRed and grey and silver foxDAFFY! They drive me daffy!Those hunters with their great big gunsThey're all uncles, cousins, fathers, sonsCrazy! They got me hazyWith all that rootin'-flootin'-hootin'-tootin'-high-falootin' noisy shootin'Closer! They're gettin' closerWith shot-guns, pistols, bows and arrows, riffles,Knives, and other deadly triflesScram now! While I'm still ableYou're nutty to think that I'm gonnaEnd up on somebody's dinner tableSooooo,Good-bye!So long now!Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo,Woo- hoo, woo-hoo...
