Don't ever bath with a hippo

He won't leave you room for a shrug

He'll keep all the bubbles up his end

While you get the end with the plug

To bath with a hippo's not clever

You need something more your own size

He'll panic and squash you whenever

He gets the shampoo in his eyes

An elephant's worse, I can tell you

The water all goes up his trunk

But don't ever bath with a hippo...

And don't let him have the top bunk!
