  2. Or a gnu…

    …I had taken furnished lodgings down at Rustington-on-Sea
    Whence I travelled on to Aston-under-Lyne
    On the second night I stayed there I was wakened from a dream
    Which I’ll tell you all about some other time
    Among the hunting trophies on the wall above my bed
    Stuffed and mounted was a face I thought I knew
    A bison? An okapi? Could it be a hartebeest?
    Then I seem to hear a voice—”I’m a gnu!

    I’m a gnu—a-g-nother gnu
    I wish I could g-nash my teeth at you
    I’m a gnu—how do you do?
    You really oughtta g-know w-who’s w-who
    I’m a gnu—spelt G – N – U
    Call me bison or okapi and I’ll sue
    Nor am I in the least like that dreadful hartebeest
    Oh, g-no, g-no, g-no, I’m a gnu!
    G-no, g-no, g-no, I’m a gnu!
    G-no, g-no, g-no, I’m a gnu!”

    —Flanders & Swann, The Gnu Song
