The mollkey and the elephant

Were playing seven up,

The spider and the blue-tailed PY

lf?ere eating Kaiser's pup.

The kangaroo danced a polka

'fF ith the baboon's little brother,

The skunk and the fat man go t mixed up,

So you

could~'t

tell w hich was ' to t her.

[Cho rus]

Barnum and the happy family

Went out on a drun k,

The alligator came rolling home,

And rolled in th e bull fro g's hunk.

The camel called the kangaroo a liar,

Said the baboon was a f ool,

T he mosquito got on his dignity,

.And pulverized th e mule. [Ch orus]
