O-U (The Hound Song)
(from The Electric Company)
words by Tom Lehrer
music: "Caro Nome" from Rigoletto, by Giuseppe Verdi - (public domain)
I'm a very quiet hound.
I don't bark or run around.
I just lie here on the ground,
With my head upon this mound.
No one knows where I can be found.
If they knew, then they'd be bound
To come and take me to the pound.
That's why I don't dare make a sound.
