There was a large, dark aardvark in the park
They say he's missing from the zoo
The police are searching high and low
But they cannot find him, can you? Peekaboo!
Why did he go? Oh! I'll tell you the reason!
This is aardvark mating season!
If an aardvark makes a date
He'll slip right through those old zoo gates
So if you see two aardvarks necking in the park,
Don't upset their apple cart!
Do not be a spy, you're not the FBI,
You should never break an aardvark's heart!
To be an aardvark is not easy folks
'Cause all you get to eat is ants! (Dee-li-see-us)!
And all the other animals make jokes
At your attempts to find romance. (Very funny)!
Nobody laughs at hippopotomusses or at fat rhinosorusses
But an aardvark makes 'em howl because he's neither fish nor fowl.
He's like a kangaroo, in love with a canoe.
That's what makes the zoo folks laugh (ha ha)!
All of this is so, and here is how I know:
I'm your friendly neighbourhood giraffe!!
