A one-horned unique animal. The uniquehorn is such a wonderful beast!
lyrics
The Uniquehorn Jan Hauenstein
(G) (Em) (Am7) (D)
(G)(hold)Look, there runs the (Em)uniquehorn!
At (Am7)first you might think, ‘That’s a (D7)unicorn!’
(F)All in all, it (C)looks like a horse,
But (A)you will spot the difference, (D) of course!
‘Cause on its (G)head,
What kind of horn is (E)that?
Made of (Am)golden-yellow dough, (F)so very yummy,
And (C)what's in there is most (D)delicious for your tummy!(D7)
In the horn is ice (Em)cream, ice cream ga(C)lore,
Much more (A)ice cream than in the (D)store next door,
There's (G)pineapple, apple, (Em)apricot, wow!
Put the (Am7)ice cream in a (D7)big bucket now!
Ba(G)nana, pear, (E) caramel,
(Am)All these flavors taste (D) oh so well!
(C)Orange, pistachio, (Am) chocolate,
(C)Don't miss this chance, that would (D)be so very (D4)sad! (D)
(G) Holladi and (E)holladee-hee
The (Am)uniquehorn makes the (D)children happy,
(G) Holladee-hee and (E)holladi,
More (Am)ice cream than your (D)mum and dad (G)can buy! (Em) (Am7) (D)(hold)
The (G)uniquehorn wiggles its (Em)butt like a gnu,
(Am7) Takes a break, it has to (D7)go to the loo,
(F)What it drops there doesn't (C)taste good, hey!
(A) Better stay a(D)wayl!
But on its (G)head,
What kind of horn is (E)that?
It’s made of (Am)golden-yellow dough, (F)so very yummy,
And (C)what's in there is most (D)delicious for your tummy!(D7)
In the horn is ice (Em)cream, ice cream ga(C)lore,
Much more (A)ice cream than in the (D)store next door,
There's (G)raspberry, hazelnut, (Em) strawberry,
(Am7)Walnut-passion fruit and va(D7)nilla-cherry,
(G) Mango-melon and (E)nougat-cinnamon for you,
Now (Am)please don't ask me if (D)this is all true,
(C)Kiwi-cookie dough, it’s an (Am)ice cream feast,
The (C)uniquehorn is such a (D)wonderful (D4)beast! (D)
(G) Holladi and (E)holladee-hee
The (Am)uniquehorn makes the (D)children happy,
(G) Holladee-hee and (E)holladi,
More (Am)ice cream than your (D)mum and dad can (G)buy!
And (Em)if you always eat (C)all of your ice cream,
(D) It will come to (G)you, though (C)maybe (D)only in a (G)dream!
(Em) (Am7) (D) (G)(hold) (C)(hold) (G)(hold)

Why no free uploads? I cover songs. Register them with the German music rights agency GEMA. They hopefully reimburse the artists. The tax authorities demand that I make (not lose) a little money each year......more
