This Frog
This record is winding down toward its end now
But before the needle reaches the final groove
I, Kermit the Frog, wanna take this opportunity to remind you that
My struggle to the top of the frog heap has not always been an easy one
But, you know, when times got tough
There was always one song that restored my spirit
It gave me the courage to go on
And I'd like to sing it for you, now
This frog has to go his own way
This frog doesn't care what the other frogs say
This frog wants to be happy
And this frog has to try
This frog is gonna make it
Or know the reason why
I'm not gonna sit here
Like some dumb old bump on a log
That isn't me
I'm gonna be this frog
This frog has a song to be sung
This frog isn't gonna spend his life in a swamp
Catchin' flies with his tongue
This frog may slip and stumble (this frog may stumble)
But this frog tries again (this frog tries again)
This frog never will grumble (this frog will never grumble)
But fall to rise again (but fall to rise again)
This frog is staying with it
Like a tick sticks to a dog
I'm gonna win
You're gonna love this frog (this winning frog, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(This frog has some climbing to do)
(This frog has some dreams that he's makin' come true)
(This frog never will falter) this frog
(No, not through slush or fog) ah, ah, ah
This frog will not wear a halter
'Cause nothing halts this frog (this frog)
I made myself a promise (ah, ah)
As a young green pollywog (ah, ah)
I'll be on top
Nothing can stop (nothing can stop)
This frog (this frog, this frog)
(This frog)
But before the needle reaches the final groove
I, Kermit the Frog, wanna take this opportunity to remind you that
My struggle to the top of the frog heap has not always been an easy one
But, you know, when times got tough
There was always one song that restored my spirit
It gave me the courage to go on
And I'd like to sing it for you, now
This frog has to go his own way
This frog doesn't care what the other frogs say
This frog wants to be happy
And this frog has to try
This frog is gonna make it
Or know the reason why
I'm not gonna sit here
Like some dumb old bump on a log
That isn't me
I'm gonna be this frog
This frog has a song to be sung
This frog isn't gonna spend his life in a swamp
Catchin' flies with his tongue
This frog may slip and stumble (this frog may stumble)
But this frog tries again (this frog tries again)
This frog never will grumble (this frog will never grumble)
But fall to rise again (but fall to rise again)
This frog is staying with it

Nothing can stop (nothing can stop)
This frog (this frog, this frog)
(This frog)
