carp
flounder
lobster
The crab wanted to say 'Cut the crap!' - he was sharp
But when he tried, it turned into 'Cut the carp'.
He floundered around and turned as red as a lobster
And the lobster he was red as reclined on a bolster.

Newt Gingrich shouldn't be legal
He's a disgrace to the American Eagle
And I gnu Newt would not have been pleased
If a Manchester Terrier came and bit his knees.

One boy decided, a dog was the best
A whale, said the other, a tad obsessed
I like them weasles, they sure are sly
I'd pick a walrus, they seem so shy

Come and sit beside me said the spider
a snake can learn to use a typewriter
just tell that darn wasp to go away
so that me and the shark will have time to play

I got me a mouse, in a big cage
But I hear gerbils are, all the rage
Lions are passe, so yesterday
And cardinals, overdone, cliche

A sow without a piglet is a sorry sow,
A ewe without a lamb is bleating, and how!
A cow without a calf is lowing in dismay
And a mare without a foal just munches her hay.

A leopard's got spots, to call his own
A tiger, by his stripes, is well known
So is zebra, in shades of black and white
While skunks fame is stinky and impolite

swan
owl
loon
stork
Reflection and reality, breast to breast, the swan
Floats majestically. Hooting, the owl heralds dawn
In the early summer. The loon calls plaintive and sad
And the stork calls to enthral a new mum and dad.

Stag bettles don't look much like a deer
And Koala's aren't much of a bear......liberties, poetic license perhaps
Poor greyhounds, skinny, but fast as a shot
But fly's offspring are nothing but maggot

Three New World animals, chipmunk is first
The American grey squirrel has done its worst
By killing our red ones. A little ground hog
Is a sort of marmot - quite like a prairie dog?

That hussy Barbet was such a tease
Offers to warmbler every man she sees
She's a babbler, a talker, that one
She'll tell you to go fly a kite, for fun

I could really use one of those anteater now
But I'm not sure I would like aardvark with towel
Imagine how the antelope can run
But I would think the zebra can have bit of fun

The iguana lurches through the wood
The jaguar is eating - well and good.
The magpie - one for sorrow, two for mirth -
Is celebrating Millie Mantis' birth.

He got Rhodesian ridgeback and he's mean

Has a green frog arrived in your pond,
Is a toad disguised as James Bond?
A salamander lives in the fire,
A newt can sing in the choir.

That sexy wombat has such flair
Orangutan is a slob
But lemur makes my heart throb

The oyster snuggled down in his oyster bed,
The clam clammed up and nothing was said.
The mussel got up and went to the gym,
And the scallop had curvy shapes round the rim.

The standard poodle line is "See you around"
(Well that's what she said to the keeshond)
So the keeshond prayed to St. Bernard for salvation,
Then tried to hit on the dalmation.

A Virginia deer is a virgin for short, but not for long.
Whales have a penchant for singing a very soulful song.
Tree mice hang upside down and become tree bats
And tree foxes like to scare the nasty neighbourhood cats.

The riceworm eats like a germ
And a germ clings to the earthworm
While the threadworm gets a perm
And the hookworm joins a firm
