In the pond, where beavers and bullfrogs are kings,
a duck has webbed feet and wings and things.
He quacks aloud instead of sings -
on his face, a useful tool...called a bill. He ain't no fool.
When he blows that thing, he really swings,
in the pond, where beavers and bullfrogs are kings.

Bullfrogs can blow bubbles bigger than you!
The giraffe is insulted, so he shows her his shoe.
I am not kidding, they blow them bigger than the moon.
He thinks the firefly is kidding; is she some sort of loon?
Come down by the lagoon, she states, and you will see.
Giraffe follows here there at a quarter until three.
It is early morning, but they arrive on the double.
Where he sees the frogs; each blowing a giant bubble.

In my world toads are brown and frogs are green.
So South America has something I have never seen.
Their frogs are pink, red, yellow, polka dotted and blue.
They have poison frogs. Does this scare you?
Because I want to go down there, so I can see.
Frogs in living color, I think they would delight me.
I do not want a bite from a poison frog though.
Maybe I should stay here, and you should go.
You could take a camera and send me pix.
This is on the level, not one of my selfish tricks.
I am willing to pay twenty-five for your extra bag.
I wish you would do this for me. This is not a gag.

Bullfrogs in the belfry – get it on.
Butterflies sipping tea – get it on.
Bananas making bread – get it on.
Bubbles beyond belief – get it on.
Bare bottoms bumping blue birds – get it on.
Got on it – hair follicles parading past ferris wheels.
Got on it – hungry appetite hurrying onto subways.
Got on it – helpful hints scurrying onto freight cars
Got on it – hilarious hippos stomping through a zoo.
Got on it – hugs all around for the USA, red, white and blue.

Bullfrogs start to sing
As evening sky creeps in
The sun goes to hide.
