Met an old frog sitting on a river bank
Croaking at a song, sounded cool
He caught a fly and it caught my eye
Said his name was frank
He said: Man, you sure look blue
I said: I just came here to think a while
Forget about a girl I once knew
When it jumped up on a stump
And I saw him smile
He said: You ain't the only one to ever lose
'Cause I used to a prince
I used to be the king of my own little pent
On a quiet mountain string
'Til a young lady came and kiss me
In a twisted tale gone wrong
Yeah, I used to be a prince
Now I'm just a frog
He said: I met her in the bar called the water hose
Salamander was her name
She was dancing with some horny toads
Oh, man she took my breath away
She swam home with me that night
And we were married in the spring
But a leap year later
She hopped the flag
Met that toad in new orleans
Yeah, I used to a prince
I used to be the king of my own little pent
On a quiet mountain string
'Til a young lady came and kiss me
In a twisted tale gone wrong
Yeah, I used to be a prince
Now I'm just a frog, sitting on a log
Singin a song, for me and you
We both loved, and we both lost
Through it all one thing is true
There's more fish in the sea
And more frogs in the stream
And I said
Some much for princes, and
So much for kings
We're just two friends sitting on a river bank
Talking 'bout history
I don't know about you
But as far as me
I'm kind of glad she's gone
If I had to be her prince
If I had to be her prince
I'd rather be a frog
How about you, dog?
Just two frogs sitting on a log, singing a song
Aye!
We're just two frogs sitting on a log, singing a song
