there was a little meerkat he lived in zoo
miles away from home feeling very blue
missing all his family very sad was he
hoping maybe oneday his family he would see.

he decided to escape anyway he can
meerkat he was clever and made himself a plan
he waited till the dark so no one else could see
squeezed out from his cage now at last was free.

then he saw a boat anchored in the bay
meerkat decided he would stowaway
then the boat set sail and headed out to sea
he was heading home happy now was he.

meerkat made it home to his desert land
underneath the sun with miles and miles of sand.
surrounded by his family like he was before
happy and content he was home once more.
