Nursery Wonders

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.
The monkey bumped the skunk,
And sat on the elephant's trunk;
The elephant sneezed and fell to his knees,
And that was the end of the monk!

The monk!

A very funny version goes like this

The monkey he got drunk,
and sat on the elephant's trunk.
The elephant sneezed
and fell on his knees
and that's what became of the monk

Another version goes like this

(First Verse)

Said a flee to a fly in a flue,
Said the flee "Oh, what shall we do?"
Said the fly "Let us flee,"
Said the flee "Let us fly,"
So the flew through a flaw in the flue.
