I once had an Elephant
That kept all his junk inside of his trunk

From colorful maps of the Far East
To recipes of food, he loved to eat

His collection of Roller Derby star cards
A hot pink Leisure suit from the 70's he wore

A hamster wheel he feels he may one day need
If he happens to run into a hampster family

A Checker flag in case he makes it to the races
A bottle of water, if in the Desert without an Oasis

Plans for building the worlds tallest skyscraper
Peanut butter and a box of Vanilla wafers

At least 2 colorful metal Kazoos  
Cause when you Kazoo, you need a friend with you

And last but not least believe you me
A picture of the herd he calls family

The only problem that he keeps repeating
Are his bouts of constant sneezing

Which blows all the junk from out of his trunk
And he spends most his time picking it up

Which really isn't all that much fun
Which is why I say I had an Elephant once
