Description
Based on my vocal setting of Gavin Ewart’s poem “The Learnèd Hippopotamus”:
The learnèd hippopotamus
Uses long words like “dichotomous”
If they don’t exist he makes them up…
The true scholars and the high-brows
Raise their supercilious eyebrows
But he blows bubbles at them all –
glug glug, glup and glup!
