Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Elephant & Hippo Songs
Well, maybe somebody could put a tune to this one:

Once there was an elephant
Who tried to use the telephant
Oh, no, I mean an elephone
Who tried to use the telephone
Whate'er it was, he got his trunk
Entangled in the telephunk
The more he tried to get it free
The louder buzzed the telephee
(I fear I'd better drop the song
Of elephop and telephong)

I think that was in the Childcraft poetry volume, if anybody remembers Childcraft. I don't know who wrote it, but it sounds suspiciously like Mr. Nash.

Aloha,
Mark
