April Index

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...
