The Lyrics

I love gazelle and gnu,
They taste so fine.

To get 'em dropped, I have to shoot,
Then they're lyin'
On the plain, lyin',

Meaning they don't stand up
When I've gunned 'em down. . .
Stuff 'em in my Caddie,
The Escalade I drive around town.

I love gazelle and gnu,
On which I dine.

I love gnu,
I love gnu,
I love gnu,
I love gnu, tastes like cow,
But want my share
Of gazellery;
I frown on sow.

Or deer meat!
My lunch? Gazelle and gnu.
They taste so fine.

the gazelle was funny on its own...doubly funny when you add something "gnu"

So did you find a Brand Gnu Key on the Highway Gazelle?

Since I'm not sufficiently familiar with the original song, -and thus unable to give you a proper mark for pacing- it would be downright EVIL if I'd vote for this. On an entirely different note, I'd like to put you through an ordeal: try to pronounce a 'g' for an 'n.' And make it sound natural. I bet that it will give you a 'glottal stop' feeling.
