Zoo Time

The kids were excited, The teachers were delighted, And so was the carefree crew, It was time to visit the zoo!
David was making a howling sound, Mike and Mark were monkeying around, The chimps were hopping too, Yes, we were in the zoo.
Tracy was pulling Kelly’s hair, Big Bob gave a cold stare, The tiger ran to the loo, It was fun to be in the zoo.
The animals were frazzled, By all this commotion. Their board of directors, Passed this motion: “We are innocent; we did no crime. These kids should be made, To do some zoo time.”
