🎶 The Ballad of Cappy the Capybara 🎶
(Verse 1)
Down by the river, where the tall grasses sway,
Lives a gentle giant, he brightens up the day.
He's got a big, blocky head and a coat of earthy brown,
He’s the most famous creature in the whole South American town.
He's not racing or chasing, no hurry in his stride,
He’s just got a simple life, and he takes it all in pride.
He is Cappy, the Capybara, the legend we all know,
The king of the wetlands, moving nice and slow.
(Chorus)
Oh, Cappy the Capy, with the vibe so serene,
The friendliest fella that the world has ever seen.
He’s soaking in the sunlight, or floating on the stream,
Living every minute like a peaceful, easy dream.
Got the birds on his back, the monkeys in his tree,
If you need a pal, well, Cappy’s got a spot for thee!
(Verse 2)
You might see him sharing space with a turtle and a duck,
He doesn’t mind the company, he’s got all the good luck.
A caiman might swim by, a jaguar might stare,
But Cappy just blinks slowly, he hasn't got a care.
'Cause he's a true host, the unifier of the land,
He just sits in the water and he offers out a hand.
He munches on the grasses, he never makes a fuss,
Just radiating calmness, for all of us.
(Chorus)
Oh, Cappy the Capy, with the vibe so serene,
The friendliest fella that the world has ever seen.
He’s soaking in the sunlight, or floating on the stream,
Living every minute like a peaceful, easy dream.
Got the birds on his back, the monkeys in his tree,
If you need a pal, well, Cappy’s got a spot for thee!
(Bridge)
In a world that is spinning, moving fast, fast, fast,
Cappy’s a reminder that the stillness always lasts.
Take a breath, slow it down, don't worry what's ahead,
Just be kind to your neighbors, like Cappy always said.
(Guitar Solo - Slow, easy acoustic strumming with a little playful whistle)
(Chorus)
Oh, Cappy the Capy, with the vibe so serene,
The friendliest fella that the world has ever seen.
He’s soaking in the sunlight, or floating on the stream,
Living every minute like a peaceful, easy dream.
Got the birds on his back, the monkeys in his tree,
If you need a pal, well, Cappy’s got a spot for thee!
(Outro)
Yeah, just pull up a log, or jump in the pond,
Cappy the Capybara, he's your friend beyond!
Capy! Capy! Yeah... a legend through and through.
