"WHAT?!
If I were a Throp?!
Who'd ever want to be a...a...a
THROP?!"
A very angry Squallhoot
If I Were a Throp

If I were a Throp?
(Who'd want to be a Throp?)
I'd rather be a mop! (That's right!)
If I were a Throp
My fun would have to stop.
I'd have to stay inside at night.

If I were a Throp
I'd have to flippy-flop up on the top,
And then I'd whop and bop you on the head.
(And make you cry!)
If I were a Throp
I'd grab you and go choppy-chop,
And throw the little pieces in the sun to fry.

Oh...That's what we hear so we know it must be right.
That's what they would do if they came out tonight.
Da-wa-deh-wuh-doo!
Da-wa-deh-wuh-doo!
Da-wa-deh-wuh-doo if they came out tonight!

If I were a Throp? Oh! What an awful thought!
I'd rather fall in melted ice!
If YOU were a Throp... (Oh, I'd rather not, thanks.)
I don't have to ask you why.

If I were a Throp I'd want every little thing you've got -
Every pot and lollipop! (What's yours is MINE!)
If I were a Throp I'd never shop up on the top.
(It's easier to rob you when you close your eyes.)

Oh, that's what we hear - so we know it must be right.
Oh, those rumors must be true.
We've all heard the stories once or twice.
That's what they would do if they came out tonight!
Da-wa-deh-wuh-doo!
Da-wa-deh-wuh-doo!
Da-wa-deh-wuh-doo if they came out tonight!
Da-wa-deh-wuh-doo!
Da-wa-deh-wuh-doo!
Da-wa-deh-wuh-doo if they came out tonight!
