Verse
GCmaj7
The horse, Is a noble Beast,
D
From the mustang from the west,
Cmaj7G
To the Stallion to the east.
Cmaj7G
But the horse has a distant cousin,
Cmaj7G
It lives i do not know where,
Cmaj7G
But its message of racial harmony,
Em/Em7 D (hammer on 3rd fret on the
when playing D)
Is one that we all can share.
Chorus
G (Cmaj7 optianal)
Hats off to the zebra,
Cmaj7G
He is black and white,
Cmaj7GEm/Em7 D
He doesnt fight because there not very good at it.
Cmaj7G
In a world of confusion,
Cmaj7G
We all need a sign
Cmaj7G
If only we could live side by side,
Em/Em7 D
like the stripes on a zebras spine.
G
Hat's off to the Zebras,
G
The humble badger,
Cmaj7
Takes a sip of mornin' dew
D
But he's totally colour blind,
Cmaj7G
So he cant judge you.
Cmaj7G
But the badger is a dreamer
Cmaj7G
The badger has a plan
Cmaj7GEm/Em7 D
He knows that his destiny is to help his fellow man.
Chorus
N.C. G
Hats of to the badgers,
Cmaj7G
They are black and white
Cmaj7G
and they dont fight,
Em/Em7 D
except for mating rights and territory.
Cmaj7G
Black man and a white man,
Cmaj7G
Both they need to shave,
Cmaj7G
United by the badger brush
Em/Em7 D
Hes helping from beyond the grave.
G
Hats off to the badger
Cmaj7G
What about the tapir
Cmaj7G
half zebra half pig-a
Cmaj7G
imagine the 'stig-ma
Cmaj7G
but the tapir stands proud
Cmaj7G
hats off to the tapir.
Cmaj7G
Badgers and zebras,
Cmaj7G
Skunks.. Oh yeah,
Cmaj7G
And ring tailed lemurs
CmajG
Living together
Em/Em7
In harmony
D (strum)
And if the.. Killer whales can do it,
(repeat intro)
why cant we.
Thats it...
