The Lone Rhinoceros

I'm a Lone Rhinoceros
There Ain't One Hell of a Lots of Us
Left in This World

I Stand Alone in My Concrete Cell
Where People Stare and Toss Me Coke Cans
I Guess It's Better Than Being Poached
But I'd Give My Horn Just to See My Homeland

I'm a Lone Rhinoceros
There Ain't One Hell of a Lots of Us
Left in This World

They Say I Am Ugly,
Call Me a Beast
I Hear Them Snicker
When I'm Half Asleep
Is Beauty Such a Big Commodity
I Always Heard It Was Only So Deep

I'm a Lone Rhinoceros
There Ain't One Hell of a Lots of Us
Left in This World

I Know the Zoos Protect My Species
They Give Me Food, Collect My Feces
But I Can't Help It, I Miss the Past
I'll Never Again See My Good Old Mudbath
