The Lyrics

It’s nice today so come and play the sun is out hip hip hooray!
It’s nice today so come and play the sun is out hip hip hooray!

Sent to jungle, a mighty jungle
Phone tester slept one night
In a jungle a quiet jungle
The lion sleeps tonight

Ya- hearme- now? X ???

Near the village once peaceful village
He tested day till night
Near the village once quiet village
The lion caused a fright

Darling solo

Hush my darling he is done gnarling
The lion ate tonight
Hush my darling he is done gnarling
Lion saved us tonight

Ah, to sleep, perchance to dream, ay, there's the five.

For in that sleep of death what cat may come, when he has shuffled off this mortal phone tester, must lick his claws. Thumbs up.
