Questions

Questions I’ve got some questions; the truth if you please I’d like to know – does a penguin have knees Can a rhinoceros – if he has a twitch Raise his back leg to get at his itch If water gets in a bull elephant’s ear Can he hop on one leg until it is clear A better one yet – can he smother a sneeze By holding his trunk between his front knees Is a zebra a white horse with black stripes on the side Or a black horse with white stripes – how can we decide Can a wolf really blow or is that just a tale Can a golf ball plug up the blowhole of a whale Why does a road runner run – can’t he fly Why does Wylie Coyote continuously try What made the very first hyena laugh It must have been one big hilarious gaffe How does a rooster know just when to crow How does a homing pigeon know where to go How does a opossum think he will survive By making us all think that he’s not alive How can a male mantis get into the act Knowing when finished he will be attacked Why does a poet write things down their way Why did you come out to hear us today These are the questions – please give them some thought I’d hate to believe they were all asked for naught
