歌曲歌詞
I starred in every high school play
Blew every drama teacher away
Graduated first in my class at Juilliard
Took every acting workshop I could
And I dreamed of Hollywood
While I read my Uta Hagen and studied the Bard
Hit the boards and paid my dues
And got phenomenal rave reviews
I knew the world was gonna love me without a doubt
I was sure that Tarantino would be callin＇ me on the phone
Annie Leibovitz would shoot me for Rolling Stone
But the years have come and gone
And I＇m sorry to say that＇s not the way that it＇s all worked out
I＇m a tour guide on the Jungle Cruise ride
Skipper Dan is the name
And I＇m doin＇ 34 shows every day
And every time it＇s the same
Look at those hippos they＇re wigglin＇ their ears
Just like they＇ve done for the last 50 years
Now I＇m laughin＇ at my own jokes but I＇m cryin＇ inside
＇Cause I＇m workin＇ on the Jungle Cruise ride
Oh the critics they used to say
I was the new Olivier
Thought I＇d be the toast of Sundance or maybe Cannes
Aw but don＇t bother tryin＇ to IMDb me
The only place you might possibly see me
Is ridin＇ my little boat around Adventureland
It ain＇t exactly what I planned
But I＇m a tour guide on the Jungle Cruise ride
Skipper Dan is the name
And I＇m doin＇ 34 shows every day
And every time it＇s the same
I would＇ve killed if I＇d been in ＂Speed The Plow＂
But what＇s the difference that＇s all behind me now
＇Cause I＇m payin＇ the rent and I＇m swallowin＇ my pride
And I＇m workin＇ on the Jungle Cruise ride
I should be there on Broadway
Knockin＇ ＇em dead in ＂12 Angry Men＂
But instead I＇m here tellin＇ these lame jokes
Again 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
And there it is the backside of water
What have I done with my life
I shoulda listened when my grandfather said
＂Why don＇t you major in business instead ＂
Now my hopes have all vanished and my dreams have all died
And I＇ll probably work forever as a tour guide on the Jungle Cruise ride
Skipper Dan is the name
And I＇m doin＇ 34 shows every day
And every time it＇s the same
Look at those hippos they＇re wigglin＇ their ears
Somebody shoot me ＇cause I＇m bored to tears
Always said I＇d be famous I guess that I lied
＇Cause I＇m workin＇ on the Jungle Cruise ride
I＇m still workin＇ on the Jungle Cruise ride
