|
I starred in every high school play |
|
Blew every drama teacher away |
|
I graduated first in my class at |
|
JuilliardTook every acting workshop |
|
I couldAnd |
|
I dreamed of |
|
HollywoodWhile |
|
I read my |
|
Uta Hagen and studied the |
|
BardHit the boards and paid my dues |
|
And got phenomenal rave reviews |
|
I knew the world was gonna love me, without a doubt |
|
I was sure that |
|
Tarantino would be callin' me on the phone |
|
Annie Leibovitz would shoot me for |
|
Rolling Stone |
|
But the years have come and gone |
|
And I'm sorry to say that's not the way that it's all worked out |
|
I'm a tour guide on the |
|
Jungle Cruise ride |
|
Skipper Dan is the name |
|
And I'm doin' 34 shows every day |
|
And every time it's the same |
|
Look at those hippos, they're wigglin' their ears |
|
Just like they've done for the last 50 years |
|
Now I'm laughin' at my own jokes but |
|
I'm cryin' inside |
|
Cause I'm workin' on the |
|
Jungle Cruise ride |
|
Oh, the critics, they used to say |
|
I was the new |
|
OlivierThought |
|
I'd be the toast of |
|
Sundance or maybe |
|
CannesAw, but don't bother tryin' to |
|
IMDB meThe only place you might possibly see me |
|
Is ridin' my little boat around |
|
Adventureland |
|
It ain't exactly what |
|
I plannedBut |
|
I'm a tour guide on the |
|
Jungle Cruise ride |
|
Skipper Dan is the name |
|
And I'm doin 34 shows every day |
|
And every time it's the same |
|
I would've killed if |
|
I'd been in "Speed The Plow" |
|
But what's the difference, that's all behind me now |
|
Cause I'm payin' the rent and |
|
I'm swallowin my pride |
|
And I'm workin' on the |
|
Jungle Cruise ride |
|
I should be there on |
|
BroadwayKnockin' 'em dead in "12 Angry Men" |
|
But instead |
|
I'm here tellin' these lame jokes |
|
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again |
|
Bengal Tigers can jump over 20 feet! |
|
That's an |
|
African bull elephant... |
|
And there it is, the backside of water! |
|
What have |
|
I done with my life?! |
|
I shoulda listened when my grandfather said"Why don't you major in business instead?" |
|
Now my hopes have all vanished and my dreams have all died |
|
And I'll probably work forever as a tour guide on the |
|
Jungle Cruise ride |
|
Skipper Dan is the name |
|
And I'm doin' 34 shows every day |
|
And every time it's the same |
|
Look at those hippos, they're wigglin their ears |
|
Somebody shoot me cause |
|
I'm bored to tears |
|
Always said |
|
I'd be famous... |
|
I guess that |
|
I liedCause |
|
I'm workin' on the |
|
Jungle Cruise ride |
|
I'm still workin' on the |
|
Jungle Cruise ride |
