Ask the dragon why she's crawling with eight legs
And she says, "Dunno, I'm just doing it"
Ask a giraffe, why he's keeping his neck straight
And he says, "Dunno, I'm just doing it"

Ask a bird, why he's flying so high
And he says, "Dunno, I'm just doing it"
Ask a girl, why she's dancing in the wind
And this is what she says

"Ask an elephant, why he's raising his trunk
And he says, dunno, I'm just doing it
Ask a tiger, why he's running so fast
And he says, dunno, I'm just doing it"

Ask a monkey, why he's swinging from a tree
And he says, "Dunno, I'm just doing it"
Ask a guy, why he's dancing in the sun
And this is what he says

"Ask an elephant, why he's raising his trunk
And he says, dunno, I'm just doing it
Ask a tiger, why he's running so fast
And he says, dunno, I'm just doing it"

Ask a monkey, why he's swinging from a tree
And he says, "Dunno, I'm just doing it"
Ask a guy, why he's dancing in the sun
And this is what he says
