King Monkey and Scratchy Scratch
King Monkey got a kitty, so hip hip hooray!
He named her Scratchy Scratch before the next Tuesday.
She gives him tiny pats and tries to make his tummy stay.
Into a perfect bed, where her tiny head she doth lay.
Butterflies follow Scratchy Scratch around the castle deep
She does not have to cage them, they stay within the keep
King Monkey is thrilled with his daughter and her clothing heaps.
He watches her while he rules, and even while she sleeps.
