The Animal Fair
Traditional
I went to the animal fair
The birds and the beasts were there
The big baboon by the light of the moon
Was combing his auburn hair
You should've seen the monk
He sat on the elephant's trunk
The elephant sneezed and fell to his knees
And that was the end of the monk
The monk, the monk, the monk
The monk, the monk, the monk, the monk, the monk

And that was the end of the monk
The elephant sneezed and fell to his knees
And that was the end of the monk
The monk, the monk, the monk
The monk, the monk!
