The Mixed Up Zoo

Of all the places I have been This is the strangest That I've seen It is called The mixed up zoo where the animals Just will not do Exactly what they're supposed to do That's why it's called the mixed up zoo Imagine lions in a tree Not where they're supposed to be A giraffe who is afraid of heigts And bats who will not fly at night I saw a goat who did not bleat And then I saw a wool less sheep A zebra who was blue and green The strangest place I've ever been I saw a duck who did not quack I even met a talking yak A turkey who could really fly A hyena who would only cry Geese that croaked like giant frogs And chickens who would bark like dogs Elephants with ears so small You would think they couldn't hear at all I saw a horse who would not run In all the day was really fun Monkeys who could really sing A snake who bounced just like a spring It really was a crazy place I laughed so much I hurt my face If there is one thing you must do Come and see the mixed up zoo
