"With a body length of about twenty centimeters
Bull frogs are the largest frogs in North America
As well as the champion jumpers"

Long legged Larry was a frog at the pond
Jump so high might miss him while he gone
Jump over anything, even King Kong
Jumping Jack Flash was his favorite song
Now once upon a time there was a cat in a tree
Chased a squirrel up, been stuck since three
The fireman came, said "It's too high for me" (that's too high)
How's that cat gonna ever get free?
Young Jack Turner was a staple on the block
Said he knew about a frog with an XL hop 
The neighbors started laughing, but Jackie wouldn't stop 
Ran off, came back, guess who he got? 
Well it was Long Legged Larry, didn't open his mouth 
Like a rocket to the moon through a cumulus cloud 
Touch down safe, lay the scaredy-cat on the ground 
If you listen real close you can still hear the crowd

Go Larry, go Larry, go go go Larry 
Go Larry, go Larry, go, go, go, go, go

Larry doesn't care 
Jump so high grow a beard in the air 
Jump over anything, even Times Square
Yelling "Long Legged Larry for mayor, here, here!" 
Now once upon a time there was a princess in a cell
In the tower of a castle, through a forest on a hill 
Half the men that ever sought her out had fallen ill 
All the men that ever tried to climb the wall had fell 
Handful gather at the base of the place 
Each claim way braver than the bravest you've faced 
Bunch of dingbats yapping about saving the day 
But wait, a silhouetted amphibian face in haze
Well it was Long Legged Larry on the back of a steed 
Leapt up yelling "Jordan" kiss the girl on the cheek 
Touch down safe, show the lady back to her peeps 
If you listen real close you can still hear the streets

Go Larry, go Larry, go go go Larry 
Go Larry, go Larry, go, go, go, go, go

Yeah
Larry's on the case 
Jump so high pluck a star out of space 
Jump over anything, even Salt Lake 
Jump into the mosh pit, jump out of a cake 
Now once upon a time there was a circus in town 
Some went for the cotton candy, some for the clowns
But the high wire act was the most profound
Had a poodle on a unicycle, rose in her mouth 
Ten o'clock show get the poodle in position 
Ten seconds in the unicycle starts tipping 
Now the poodle barely clinging to the wire by her mittens
But what the heck is that thing in the distance? 
Ribbit, Long Legged Larry, a sight for sore eyes 
Known to give a dog a ride seconds after he arrives 
Touch down safe, give her some kibbles and rawhide 
If you listen real close, you can still hear the vibe

Go Larry, go Larry, go go go Larry 
Go Larry, go Larry, go, go, go, go, go

Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go
