Human Beings Not Allowed

In the land of Timbuktoo Two people lived there, one was you The population went up to three When a monkey fell from a tree The monkey made an awful clatter His family came down to see what was the matter They all make a terrible to do As over their heads flew a cockatoo The cockatoo squawked, "What the heck?" And bit a monkey in the neck A sleepy mole came out of his hole As a slippery snake slithered down a pole A wolf howled from far away In a shed a donkey brayed "What's all the hullabaloo?" Said a passing red kangaroo Chasing after a frightened rat Came a hungry, angry cat A mouse scurried by in a hurry It knew it had cause to worry A lamb said "baa". a horse said "neigh" You and I ran away Realizing it wasn't fair To have human beings living there
