Max's Zoo

Have you been to Max’s zoo?
It’s up a hill and down a street
And in a house that’s really neat.
Just come on by and ring the bell
Wear a peg to block the smell
Now Max will show you around his house
But stay very close or the animals might pounce.
There are two hairy beasts out the back
Big eyes, sharp teeth and hairy backs
Inside there is another type
Two psycho creatures full of hype.
You think that’s all but no it’s a lie
Fifteen slimy silly things slide silently by.
At the end of the tour do you know what you’ve seen?
Two dogs, two cats and fifteen fish I mean.
