And here are the lyrics:

I’ve been afraid of big long words since I was a kid
I thought that I’d get over it somehow I never did
Usually it’s no big deal but every now and then
You’re audaciously loquacious (ahh!) it kicks in again

I went to a specialist and said what’s wrong with me
Based upon your test results, it’s not hard to see
You’re afraid of lengthy words you’re not the only one
Here’s what your condition’s called but this won’t be much fun

Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
If you’re afraid it’s no big deal, here’s one you should know-a
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia

I’m not even joking, no I kid you not
Though it’s absurd that’s the word I don’t like it a lot
There’s one thing I know for sure so listen if you please
Whoever came up with the word did not have the disease

[Chorus]

I was in my science class when I started screaming
It was cuz of a video the teacher was streaming
It was about a lung disease I hope they all get better
But whoever named it gave it way too many letters

I mean really who would name a disease
Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis
Not very sensitive to people who have

[chorus]
[chorus]

The Long Word Song is a Bryant Oden song about how ironic it is that the word for the fear of long words is «hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia» (well, some people drop the «hippopotomonstro», but even so) and the character, who has always been phobic of long words, also gets a fright in science over a video about a disease called «pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis».

The Long Word Song (Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia)

{Verse 1}
I’ve been afraid of big words since I was a kid
I thought that I’d get over it; somehow I never did
Usually it’s no big deal but every now and then
«You’re audaciously loquacious!» (ahh!); it kicks in again
I went to a specialist and said what’s wrong with me
«Based upon your test results, it’s not hard to see
You’re afraid of lengthy words; you’re not the only one
Here’s what your condition’s called but this won’t be much fun»

{Chorus}
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
If you’re afraid of big long words, here’s one you should know-a
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia!

{Verse 2}
I’m not even joking, believe it or not
Though it’s absurd that’s the word I don’t like it a lot
There’s one thing I know for sure so listen if you please
Whoever came up with the word did not have the disease

{Chorus}
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
If you’re afraid of big long words, here’s one you should know-a
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia!

{Verse 3}
I was in my science class when I started screaming
It was ’cause of a video the teacher was streaming
It was about a lung disease—I hope they all get better
But whoever named it gave it way too many letters

{Spoken Bridge}
I mean, really, who would name a disease—
Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis?
Not very sensitive to people who have

{Chorus}
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
If you’re afraid of big long words, here’s one you should know-a
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia!

Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
If you’re afraid of big long words, here’s one you should know-a
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia!

Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
If you’re afraid of big long words, here’s one you should know-a
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia!

{Outro}
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia!

I have a bunny named bunny and a rat named rat
A bird named bird and a cat named cat
A ferret named ferret and a dog named dog
So you can probably guess the name of my frog:

CHORUS:
Francis Felix Fenton Fabian Finley Farnsworth Falco Fallon
Flannigan Fairfax Freddy McGrog Farley Fernando the Frog

I have a hamster named hamster and a fish named fish
A horse named horse- not really but I wish
A crab named crab and a snail named bob
That’s another song, but the name of my frog: is

I have a lizard named lizard and a snake named snake
A Himalayan Guinea Pig I just call Jake
A parrot named parrot who goes with me when I jog
And who won’t stop saying the name of my frog

I have a mouse named gerbil and a gerbil named mouse
The night that I named them it was dark in the house
A cute little piggy that I call Dr. hog
But do you remember the name of my frog?
