Monty Harper - Fred's Frog, Flippy

To Rate
Verse 1
Fred's frog, Flippy is sitting on his rock
Looking like he just might jump
Come on, Flippy, jump now
Come on, Flippy, jump now
Would it help to give your tank a little bump?

Chorus
Fred says
"A watched pot never boils, you know
Watched popcorn never pops
If you're watching an okapi, she will not stick out her tongue
And a watched frog never hops!"

Verse 2
Fred's Frog Flippy is sitting in the water
Looking back up at the rock where he was
You made me miss him jump, Fred!
Ooo, he's gonna jump again, Fred!
This time I'm wanna see it when he does
Chorus
Fred says
"A watched pot never boils, you know
Watchеd popcorn never pops
If you're watching an okapi, shе will not stick out her tongue
And a watched frog never hops!"

Verse 3
We stared at Flippy 'til our eyes grew old
We got bored so we just now stopped
Fred is opening up the tank now
Fred is lifting Flippy out now
Wait, Flippy, no! He hopped!
