Lyrics

Fred's frog, Flippy is sitting on his rock
Looking like he just might jump.
Come on, Flippy, jump now.
Come on, Flippy, jump now.
Would it help to give your tank a little bump?

Fred says,
"A watched pot never boils, you know.
Watched popcorn never pops.
If you're watching an okapi, she will not stick out her tongue,
And a watched frog never hops!"

Fred's Frog Flippy is sitting in the water
Looking back up at the rock where he was.
You made me miss him jump, Fred!
Ooo, he's gonna jump again, Fred!
This time I'm wanna see it when he does.

Fred says,
"A watched pot never boils, you know.
Watched popcorn never pops.
If you're watching an okapi, she will not stick out her tongue,
And a watched frog never hops!"

We stared at Flippy 'til our eyes grew old.
We got bored so we just now stopped.
Fred is opening up the tank now.
Fred is lifting Flippy out now.
Wait, Flippy, no! He hopped!
