Our Anniversary, Part Three

Last year when we were at the zoo for our anniversary, Brad got me the cutest little stuffed white tiger cub. So this year, he got me the cutest little stuffed baby giraffe.

I named him Joshua. Not after my brother, but the Raffi song. Does anyone know it? "Joshua Giraffe... He's trapped in a zoo, with Buffalo POOO...." I just couldn't resist. I was thinking though that now Josh is trapped in Iraq with camel poo. Nothing can go wrong-go, though, even if he's not in the Congo...

Sorry, momentary interlude of foolishness there. Anyhow, isn't little Joshua Giraffe adorable?

    I will probably dream of your baby being born with a long neck and you naming him Joshua Pooh. HA! My daily thoughts usually mingle like that in my dreams. :P

  • JOSHUA GIRAFFE
    Raffi

    Joshua Giraffe was born in a zoo
    He lived there,too,for two years
    And a half he hasn't had a bath
    My mommy doesn't lick me
    Even when I'm sticky from
    Candy floss,candy apples,popcorn,
    Soft drinks,jelly beans and gumdrops
    And there must be something better
    Than living in this cage
    But I'm really not to sure
    Because I'm really short of age.

    Joshua Giraffe was feeling kind of sad
    Things were going bad
    How little of life he had
    Wasting away with no room to play
    Trapped in a zoo with buffalo,too.
    So he went next door to the elephant
    And asked him what to do
    I'm wasting away with no room to play
    I'm trapped in a zoom with buffalo,too.
    The elephant was very old and gray
    And he had a huge balloon bottom
    He said, Never fear Joshua,
    A vision will appear.

    That night a dream came to Joshua and
    Joshua saw animals,like crazy monkeys
    And a whole pile of
    Hippypotostropasuses
    And flitty moths,moths size 12
    And sleazy lizards
    and a tribe of nasty saviars
    But Joshua wasn't afraid
    Because he sang himself this song

    Nothing can go wrong-o
    I'm in the Kongo
    Nothing can go wrong-o
    I'm in the Kongo
    Nothing can go wrong-o
    I'm in the Kongo
    Nothing can go wrong-o
    I'm in the Kongo
    Nothing can go wrong-o
    I'm in the Kongo
    Nothing can go wrong-o
    I'm in the Kongo

    Even in his dream he knew
    He'd never get away,
    Not even for a day
    Then a peanut hit him on the nose
    Joshua Giraffe was back in the zoo.
    What could he do
    Awakened from his dream
    He'd never be the same
    Because of what he'd seen
    He'd seen:
    Alligators,crocodiles,tree sloth
    Anacondas,cobras and
    Large winged moths
    Orangatangs,baboons eating grapes
    Gibbons,rude mandrills and just plain apes.

    But Joshua was lucky
    He had some special friends
    And that day they went to the zoo
    But he was up tight so they waited till the night
    And they chopped his cage in two
    He discovered he could fly and
    He soared into the sky with them
    Wrapped around his neck
    And they haven't come back yet
    So if you see them get a net.

    That's right,they haven't come back yet.
    But when they do,they say they are
    Going to free all the animals from their cages
    No matter how new or modern
    Even some pets,too.
    So if on your way home today
    You happen to find....

    A baboon basking in the balcony
    Or a lion licking a lemon in the lobby
    Or a python perched in the pantry
    A wildebeest in the W.C.
    With a turtle twirling in your tub,
    Don't be afraid,just say your a friend
    Of their friend.

    Joshua Giraffe,Joshua,Joshua
    Joshua Giraffe,Joshua,Joshua
    (woo hoo)
