My girl has a moose on her bike
He's a little brown puppet that she really likes
And they ride along, together everywhere
Yeah they ride to school, and they ride to the store, oh boy
And I never ever thought I'd be jealous of a little stuffed toy, but...

I want to be that moose
I want to be that moose
Yeah it sounds real stupid but you know it's true
I want to be that moose
I want to be that moose
If I could be anything I choose, I'd be that moose

That little moose has it real sweet
Cruising right down each and every street
Yeah he rides along, keeps an eye on the map
Oh he guards the bike, day and night, that's right
And that little stuffed muppet is living the perfect life, oh oh oh

I want to be that moose
I want to be that moose
Gotta find out how they were introduced
I want to be that moose
I want to be that moose
I hope I don't sound obtuse, I want to be that moose

Well one afternoon I saw him crying
Down by the moose lodge
Cause every night she leaves him alone on the bike
No he's never ever gotten beyond the garage
So I think I'd rather be me than him
Cause I can ask her out, and maybe she'll ask me in, no no no

Don't want to be that moose
Don't want to be that moose
Cause living on a bike, well, what's the use
Don't want to be that moose
Don't want to be that moose
I'd rather be a platypus, than be that moose

Yes yes, you're gonna lose that moose
Yes yes, you're gonna lose that moose
