Tails

A lion has a tail and a very fine tail,
And so has an elephant, and so has a whale,
And so has a crocodile, and so has a quail-
They-ve all got tails but me.

If I had sixpence I would buy one;
I-d say to the shopman, -Let me try one-;
I-d say to the elephant, -This is my one.-
They-d all come round to see.

Then I-d say to the lion, -Why, you-ve got a tail!
And so has the elephant, and so has the whale!
And, look! There-s a crocodile! He-s got a tail!
You-ve all got tails like me!-
