Observe the gentle manatee-- [Will_H]
Roly-poly, dewy-eyed [Francine]
"Friend," it seems to say to me, [Beefy]
"Come in for tea; please, step inside!"
 
[Evan]
 
Observe the fearsome grizzly bear-- [Francine]
Teeth and claws and taste for flesh [Will_H]
You can't just find them anywhere [Grayman]
(They seldom visit Marrakesh)
 
[Francine]
 
Observe the subtle centipede- - [Beefy]
Undulating creepiness [Evan]
Its venomous bite can often lead [Beefy]
To nausea, fits, and sleepiness
 
[Evan]
 
Observe the lively antelope [Beefy]
Graceful and so very fleet [Francine]
Watching it, I dare to hope [Beefy]
It has really scrumptious meat
 
[Evan]
 
Observe the dangling chimpanzee [Beefy]
Scratching with his other hand [Grayman]
Should I ask him round for tea? [Beefy]
And should we sit or should we stand?
 
[Francine]
 
Observe the skyscraper giraffe [Beefy]
Whose rather good at necking [Francine]
(Although those rude hyenas laugh) [Beefy]
They're noted for their heckling
 
[Francine]
 
Observe the melancholy sloth [Evan]
How does he earn his living? [Francine]
By gambling or by prayer, or both [Beefy]
Sometimes by others giving
 
[Francine]
 
Observe the flitting hummingbird [Evan]
I'm sure he must get tired [Beefy]
Yet he won't say a f***ing word [Francine]
That's why he's so admired [Beefy]
