There’s a lemur on my lunchbox,
a bonobo on my book;
there’s a snake inside my pencil case –
just come and have a look!
There’s a rhino on my rucksack
and a chimp upon my chair;
there’s a panther with my paper
prowling proudly to its lair.
A chinchilla nabbed my dinner;
an alpaca my protractor!
A hyena, looking meaner,
got so close I nearly whacked her!
There’s a tiger on my tabletop
(I promise you it’s true)
and a cheetah ate my teacher
in our lesson at the zoo.
