Eb Ab
I starred in eEbvery high school plaAby
Blew every Ebdrama teacher awaAby
I graduaEbted first in my cAblass at JuilliarEbd Ab
Took every Ebacting workshop I cAbould
And I Ebdreamed of HollyAbwood
While I rEbead my Uta HAbagen and studied the EbBard
Ab Db
Hit the bEboards and paid my dAbues Db
And got phenEbomenal rave reAbviews Db
I knew the Ebworld was gonna lAbove me, withDbout a doEbubt Ab
I was Dbsure that TaranEbtino would be callin' me Abon the Dbphone
Annie EbLeibovitz would shoot me for AbRolling DbStone
But the Ebyears have come and gAbone
AbAnd I'm sorry to say that's not the way that it's all worked out
I'm a Ebtour Bbguide on the JAbungle Cruise Ebride
AbSkipper EbDan is the Bbname
And I'm Cmdoin' Gmthirty-four sAbhows every Ebday
And eAbvery time it's the sBbame
CmLook at those hippos, they're Gmwigglin' their ears
AbJust like they've done for the Bblast fifty years
Now I'm laEbughin' at my Bbown jokes but I'm Abcryin' insEbide
'Cause I'm wAborkin' on the BbJungle Cruise Ebride
Eb Ab
Eb Ab
Oh, the Ebcritics, they used to sAbay
I was the Ebnew OlivieAbr
Thought I'd Ebbe the toast of SuAbndance or maybe CaEbnnes Ab Db
Aw, but don't Ebbother tryin' to AbIMDDbb me
The oEbnly place you might Abpossibly Dbsee me
Is Ebridin' my little boaAbt around Adventureland
AbIt ain't exactly what I planned
But I'm a Ebtour Bbguide on the JAbungle Cruise Ebride
AbSkipper EbDan is the Bbname
And I'm Cmdoin' Gmthirty-four sAbhows every Ebday
And eAbvery time it's the sBbame
CmI would've killed if I'd beenGm in "Speed The Plow"
AbBut what's the difference, that's aBbll behind me now
'Cause I'm Ebpayin' the reBbnt and I'm sAbwallowin' my priEbde
And I'm wAborkin' on the BbJungle Cruise Ebride
F#I should be there on BrAboadway
Knockin' 'em dDbead in &qFmuot;Twelve ABbmngry Men"
F# But instead I'm here tAbellin' these lame jokes
AgBbain 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...
There it is, the backside of water!
What have I done with my life?!
CmI shoulda listened when my Gmgrandfather said
Ab"Why don't you majoBbr in business instead?"
Now my Ebhopes have all vBbanished and my Abdreams have all Ebdied
And I'll Abprobably work forBbever as a
EbTour Bbguide on the JAbungle Cruise Ebride

AbSomebody shoot me 'cause BbI'm bored to tears
Always Ebsaid I'd be fBbamous... I Abguess that I lEbied
'Cause I'm Abworkin' on the JBbungle Cruise Cmride Bb
I'm still Abworkin' on the BbJungle Cruise Ebride!
