9. Stripes
Stripes, I’m up to here with these stripes
When all is said and done what’s so very good about being black and white
There’s thousands of us in the herd who all look alike
So just relax, I’ll pretend to be a giraffe
Eating all the saplings looking plain
They’re not even wanting to be looking just the same
As all the other zebras who all look very nice
Simply causing tears with my black and white stripes
I’m up to here with these stripes
When all is said and done what’s so very good about being black and white
There’s thousands of us in the herd who all look alike
There are such a lot of us, I think I’ll be a hippopotamus
Splashing in the water, what a smashing game
I’m so fed up with looking just the same
As all the other zebras who all look very nice
Simply causing tears with my black and white stripes
I’m up to here with these stripes
When all is said and done what’s so good about being black and white
There’s thousands of us in the herd who all look alike
Stripes, I’m up to here with these stripes
When all is said and done what’s so very good about being black and white
There’s thousands of us in the herd who all look alike
There’s thousands of us in the herd and we all look alike

11.Camel said …
One day a camel and a leopard were having a conversation
And this is how it went
The camel said
“Slow down you move too fast
You’ve got to make the morning last
Just running around the African plains
Looking for fun and feeling groovy”
Then the leopard said
“Hello camel, what you’re knowing
You’ve got to stand and watch the flowers growing
And lean around and going slow
Not looking for fun or feeling groovy”
“I’ve got to rush, appointments to keep”
“I’m weary and drowsy and ready for sleep
I’ve got to go slowly”
“I’ve got to go fast
Life is lovely
All is groovy”
12.Ooga chuga
Deep in the jungle, jungle, jungle
Deep in the jungle, jungle, jungle
If you’re a tiger shake your paws
If you’re a lion give a mighty roar
Or like an elephant you could sway
Or like a bird you could just fly away to GymbaROO
Deep in the jungle, jungle, jungle
Deep in the jungle, jungle, jungle
Now you could slither like a snake
Or go swimming in the deep blue lake
Or go marching down a path
Or run along like a tall giraffe at GymbaROO
Deep in the jungle, jungle, jungle
Deep in the jungle, jungle, jungle
13.She’s a leopard
She’s a leopard, she’s a leopard
And she’s covered in spots
And she’s a really fabulous cat
She’s a leopard, she’s a leopard
And she’s covered in spots
If she was all black she’d be a panther
She’s a leopard, she’s a leopard
And she’s covered in spots
If her spots were stripes she’d be a tiger
She’s a leopard, she’s a leopard
And she’s covered in spots
If she had no spots she’d be a lion
She’s a leopard, she’s a leopard
And she’s covered in spots
And she’s a really fabulous cat
She’s a leopard, she’s a leopard
And she’s covered in spots
And she’s a really fabulous cat
14.Zoo in my house
There’s a lion in the cupboard
And a hippo in the swimming pool
There’s a panda in the kitchen
And he’s sitting on my favourite stool
There’s a turtle in the bathtub
And a bear in the bed
There’s a tiger and it’s eating
All the books that I haven’t read
I don’t know what I’m going to do
Living here in this crazy zoo
There’s a walrus in the shower
And he’s using all my best shampoo
There’s a rhino watching TV
Eating Twisties with a kangaroo
The giraffe is very friendly
But the monkeys talk till dawn
There’s a zebra in the garden
So I don’t have to mow the lawn
I don’t know what I’m going to do
Living here in this crazy zoo
There’s a zoo in my house
There’s a zoo in my house
The echidna’s in the wardrobe
Now all my clothes are full of holes
There’s a snake in the freezer
And he’s eating all the icy poles
The birds have started nesting
In all of my shoes
The gorilla’s in the backyard
Cooking on my barbecue
Crocodiles, buffalo, polar bears too
Living here in this crazy zoo
Since these animals came to stay
All my friends have run away
All my food’s gone and my money spent
I think these animals should pay rent

My blocks went right up to the sky
The cat came along and knocked them down
Yes my blocks came tumbling down
Tumbling, tumbling, tumbling down
Tumbling, tumbling, tumbling down

My castles were the best in the land
A wave came along and knocked my castle down
Yes my castle came tumbling down
Tumbling, tumbling, tumbling down

Thinking of things that made me laugh

20.Coast life
There’s a great big whale swimming in the sea
Off the coast of Kia Cora
You can take a boat, anything that floats
Go for a ride on the tide and you might see her
If you take your wheels you might see some seals
On the coast of Kia Cora
It’s not very far, you can go by car
Don’t wear thongs or you’ll slip on the rocks
And you might see them
In the sky birds like to fly
By the coast of Kia Cora
They loop the loop, turn and swoop
Their wings they flap, they take a nap
And you might see them

22.Baby beluga
Baby beluga in the deep blue sea
Swim so wide and you swim so free
Heaven above and the sea below
And the little white whale on the go
Baby beluga, baby beluga
Is your world at home, is your mama home
With you so happy
Way down below where to dolphins play
Where you dive and splash all day
Waves roll in and the waves roll out
See the water flying out of you spout
Baby beluga, baby beluga
Sing a little song, sing for all your friends
We’d like to hear you
When it’s dark and you’re home in bed
Curled up snug in your water bed
The moon is shining and the stars are out
Goodnight little whale, goodnight
Baby beluga, baby beluga
With tomorrow’s sun, another day’s begun
You’ll soon be waking
Baby beluga in the deep blue sea
Swim so wide and you swim so free
Heaven above and the sea below
And the little white whale on the go
You’re just a little white whale on the go
23.Turn around game
Let’s play the turnaround game, it’s always the same
You turn around and turn around
You turn around and turn around some more
And before you know it you’re lying on the floor
Now you’re lying on the floor put your legs in the air
Move your toes, move them everywhere
As soon as you can, you should try to stand
‘Cause we’re going to do the turnaround game again
Let’s play the turnaround game, it’s always the same
You just turn around and turn around
You turn around and turn around some more
And before you know it you’re lying on the floor
Now you’re lying on the floor, you lie on your back
Put your hands in the air and clap, clap, clap
But as soon as you can, you should try to stand
‘Cause we’re going to do the turnaround game again
Let’s play the turnaround game, it’s always the same
You turn around and turn around
You turn around and turn around some more
And before you know it you’re lying on the floor
24.Rudolf the red nosed reindeer
Rudolf the red nosed reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even so it glows
All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolf
Join in any reindeer games
Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say
“Rudolf with your nose so bright
Won’t you guide my sleigh tonight”
Then how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee
“Rudolf the red nosed reindeer
You’ll go down in history”
Rudolf the red nosed reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it

Santa came to say
“Rudolf with your nose so bright
Won’t you guide my sleigh tonight”

My mother said “When you stand in the lake
You hold up your leg and you wait, wait, wait
You’re a flamingo at GymbaROO”
I said to my mother “Which leg goes up”
She said “Hold up the left, hold it up, up, up”
You’re a flamingo at GymbaROO”
Then she said to me “Now lift up your right
Hold it up, up, now that looks right
You’re a flamingo at GymbaROO
So I practiced all day, I practiced all night
I can hold up my left, I can hold up my right
Yes I’m a flamingo
Yes I’m a flamingo at GymbaROO
26.I’m a hippopotamus
I’m as big as a hippopotamus
As a hippopotamus, as a hippopotamus
Not as big as a double decker bus
But I’m a lot bigger than you
Down in the mud pool there are quite a lot of us
More hippopotamus than you can fit in the bus
We wallow in the mud, getting dirt all over us
Stomping about having fun
We like the pool where we can have a swim
I go with my mates Jerry, Jack or Jim
The pool’s so big we can all fit in
And swim around all day
I’m as big as a hippopotamus
There are a lot of us, many hippopotamus
The giraffe they say we’re making quite a fuss
But we’re just happy this way
We like the pool where we can have a swim
I go with my mates Jerry, Jack or Jim
The pool’s so big we can all fit in
And swim around all day
I’m as big as a hippopotamus
There are a lot of us, many hippopotamus
The giraffe they say we’re making quite a fuss
But we’re just happy this way

Hiss, hiss, hiss
Hiss, hiss, hiss

Stomp, stomp, stomp
Stomp, stomp, stomp
Can you feel the snake, can you feel the snake
Hiss, hiss, hiss
Hiss, hiss, hiss
