• Pity the poor old rhino with
  A bodger on its bonce.
  • The Rhinoceros

• The bottle-nosed whale is a furlong long,
  And likewise wise
  But headstrong strong
  • The Whale

• Away on the hilltop sat combing her hair
  His fair Hippopotamine maid.
  The Hippopotamus was no ignoramus
  And sang her this sweet serenade:
  
  Mud! Mud! Glorious mud!
  Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood.
  So, follow me, follow, down to the hollow,
  And there let us wallow in glorious mud.
  • The Hippopotamus Song
