Domestically the cat and dog Are streets above the rest But wild alligators Have put this theory to the test. Panting hippopotami Run faster than a mule And a camel humps his water Through the desert like a fool. Bandicoots are ugly, Chipmonks pretty cute, And the squirrel steals his nuts And hides them in the ground as loot. Tigers are voracious But beautiful as sin, They have coats of cruel colours With two burning eyes within. Elephants spectacular, Blue whales even more But my favourite little goldfish Really shows them all the door.
