Waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle,
Swim, swim, swim!
Hop, hop, hop,
Then dive right in!
Yeah, I'm a blond,
From the Southern Hemisphere.
You still don't get it, do ya?
There's no polar bears here.
I'm hungry and I'm cold,
Want some squid, want some krill.
When my mate takes the egg shift,
Gonna eat my fill.
CHORUS:
Rockhopper, a penguin,
I can't fly, but I sure can swim.
Not from Russia, not the North Pole,
But the climate change is looking grim.
I hop from one rock to another,
Look over miles of white.
Our colony is smaller
Than it was the other night.
There's an orca out at sea
Who really wants to eat me.
But I think he's gonna see
Catching me's not easy!
CHORUS
She's keeping our egg warm now
And it's my turn to go eat.
I'm feeling kinda scrawny,
Hopping light on my feet.
It's getting warmer here each year,
Think we'll go further south.
Times are tough, don't want to go on
Living flipper to mouth.
CHORUS (2x)
