His Pet
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Do you know his pet? Oh, yes I do.
Do you know his pet? Oh, yes I do.
Do you know his pet? Oh, yes I do.
Do you know his pet? Oh, yes I do.
It's a multicolored carp.
Dressed in black, red and white.
When you clap your hands Then it will appear.
It has a very open mouth.
It's been alive two hundred years.
It can swim very fast like a torpedo shark.
Someone said that Miso Soup with carp meat would be tasty.
Then it jumped up very high.
Higher, higher and higher.
Do you know his pet? Oh, yes I do.
Do you know his pet? Oh, yes I do.
Do you know his pet? Oh, yes I do.
Do you know his pet? Oh, yes I do.
It's a multicolored carp.
Dressed in black, red and white.
When you clap your hands Then it will appear.
It can understand your words.
Always has a strange look on its face.
It can swim very fast like a torpedo shark.
It's a multicolored carp.
Dressed in black, red and white.
Growing bigger and bigger.
Gills, gills, gills, gills.
