From the album Camping With Dads Buy Now

"We can study you and me and other people that we see!"

ANTHROPOLOGIST

Sometimes when I'm bored, I think I'll go insane

So this is what I do, when I need to calm my brain!

I say "I'm an Anthropologist, I watch what people do!"

Then I'm never ever bored, 'cause there's always something new!  Ohhh!

 

Cho: I wanna be an Anthropologist

I wanna be an Anthro-pol-o-gist!

I wanna study you and me and other people that I see

I wanna study Anthro-pol-o-gy!

 

First y'gotta find an anthropologist’s hat

It's gotta look cool, but you know that!

Then stop and watch what other people do

And you'll soon be an Anthropologist too!!

C'mon! Sing with me!

Cho:

 

When the world goes crazy all you around you

Just put on your Anthropologist hat!

You can be as nutty as the people who surround you

Just watch them, and they'll watch you back!

 

Cho: I wanna be an Anthropologist!

I wanna be an Anthro-pol-o-gist!

(Whistling)         

 

Cho: Do you wanna be an Anthropologist?

Cause if you wanna be an Anthro-pol-o-gist,

If you repeat after me, exactly what I say

"Officially" you'll be, an Anthropologist today!

Here we go!  Repeat after me!

Brdg:  How strange!                         HOW STRANGE!

To know!                                                  TO KNOW!

This tribe                                                 THIS TRIBE

Eats snow!                                              EATS SNOW!

I took some notes                              I TOOK SOME NOTES

I learned their rules                        I LEARNED THEIR RULES

They don't wear coats!                  THEY DON'T WEAR COATS!

That's why they're cool                THAT'S WHY THEY'RE COOL!

Passed the test!                                  PASSED THE TEST! 

Made the list!                                       MADE THE LIST!

Now I'm an Anthropologist!      NOW I'M AN ANTHROPOLOGIST!   Ohhh!

 

Cho: We all wanna be Anthropologists!

We all wanna be Anthro-pol-o-gists!

We wanna study you and me and other people that we see

We wanna study Anthropology! Yeah, ...

We wanna study Anthropology!

We wanna study Anthro, ... Anthro-pol-o-gy!
