My Funny Farm
My monkey makes my mother mad
He also aggravates my dad
He took his car the other day
And drove it to the Hudson Bay
My kitty cat is kooky too
He likes to strut down to the zoo
And tell the tigers to all stand back
If they don’t want to get attacked
I have a hamster named Houdini
And though he is rather teeny
He’ll quickly pick a thousand locks
You could not hold him in Fort Knox
My kangaroo’s a real joker
Up all night playing poker
His friends come to destroy the house
I think I shoulda’ got a mouse
I got a hippo last July
He really is one swell guy
Everything he does is super
I got a giant pooper scooper
Living on this funny farm
I know my pets don’t mean no harm
But both my parents moved away
And no one wants to come and play
