Setting of Gavin Ewart's satirical poem about social climbing - the hippo know long words but doesn't know what to do with them, so he reverts to a favourite trick, blowing bubbles...
The sound sample here was performed by the composer, with Tasse on recorder

The zip file contains the score in two versions, one with the voice written as for alto and the other for tenor. They are otherwise identical, since the vocal range fits either voice.
