Lyrics


Welcome to the mesmerising tapestry of the African savannah
The golden hues of the sunset cast a warm glow upon the vast landscape
Zebras graze peacefully
and giraffes’ graceful silhouettes traverse the horizon
But something here is not quite right
As you can see, the aardvarks are… misaligned

Recklessly joyful oblivious elephants
Stampeded without a care
All meditating in deep contemplation
The aardvarks were caught unaware
And that is how they lost their way

These sad creatures stare listlessly into the distance.
It’s hard to watch
They stand confused and vacant
Is there any hope left?

Orycteropus afer

Since the encounter with perilous pachyderms
Things took a turn for the worse
Misaligned aardvarks are no laughing matter
It shattered their whole universe
Now they must try to re-align

Orycteropus afer

But wait! What’s this?
Is that… a shaman?!
Extraordinary!
He’s collecting them together
They seem to be starting to chant!

Orycteropus
Orycteropus
Orycteropus
Orycteropus afer!

It’s working!

… and now the aardvarks are aligned.
