From Bengal, the 1st elephant arrived in US on 4/13/1796
See the elephant with the long trunk swingin'
Great big ears and a long trunk swingin'
Snuffin' up peanuts with the long trunk swingin'
And we can stay all day.
cho:
We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too;
We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo.

ALSO:
And here is the elephant. The elephant has a
ginormous appetite. In one day it eats two tons
of hay, one dozen bunches of bannanas and
twenty buckets of rice. Madam, don't stand
too near the elephant's backside. Madam---
Madam! Too late. George, dig her out.
Oh we're off to see the Wild West Show...
