Two little girls were walking
All through the zoo
They saw many animals
Mostly two by two
They saw giraffes
As tall as the trees
The leaves were blowing
A long with the breeze
They saw monkeys
Swinging from the limbs
Acting as if they were
Playing in a jungle gym
They saw the hippos
Playing in the mud
Their armor looked like
It was covered in crud
They saw the lions
And they did roar
The girls roared at them
The lions roared some more
They saw the dolphins
Flipping in the air
Then splashing back down
Without even a care
They saw a bear
Sitting waving his paw
As if he was happy
To see one and all
They saw the aquarium
With fish swimming all around
Swimming close to the glass
But, never making a sound
They saw an ape
Pounding on his chest
As if to say look at me
For I am the best
They saw an elephant
With its trunk so long
Picking up things
To show he was strong
They saw penguins
Sliding down on the ice
And eating the fish
That tasted so nice
They saw some zebras
With stripes black and white
The girls called them ponies
And enjoyed that sight
They saw the seals
Playing in water so deep
Some were flapping fins
While others were still asleep
They saw some cheetahs
Running very very fast
The girls was wandering
How long their play would last
They saw kangaroos
Jumping all around
With babies in pouches
But not making a sound
They saw some peacocks
With tails all fanned out
The girls were in awe
There's no doubt
They saw panda bears
Climbing in the trees
Like they didn't have a care
Eating on those leafs
By the time they left the zoo
They where completly out
But, they'll have sweet dreams
On that there's no doubt
