lyrics

Penguin Parade
By Steve van Zandt

1. Put on your tux, your feathered gown
We are going where ice is found
Eat some fish along the way
And we’re going on a Penguin Parade

2. Hurry up, don’t be slow
A hungry seal lurks down below
Move along, along your way
And we’re gong on a Penguin Parade
Yes, we’re going on a Penguin Parade

3. On to the land out of the sea
We will stand in colonies
On the ground our eggs are laid
And we’re going on a Penguin Parade

4. In the spring our chicks hatch out
Little penguins run all about
They will molt when a tux is made
And they’ll join us on a Penguin Parade

CHORUS:
Who are the birds that cannot fly?
Their wings are flippers to swim and glide!
Who are the birds with a layer of fat,
To keep them warm on the cold ice flat?
Penguins – PENGUINS!
Penguins – PENGUINS!

5. Black and white, and white and black
White in front, and black in back
We are penguins, Hip hip hooray!
And we’re going on a
Penguin Parade
And we’re going on a
Penguin Parade
Yes, we’re going on a
Penguin Parade!
