BROTHER GORILLA
Through the bars of a large enclosure
Now the doors to the circus lock-up
Those self-same ladies who previously
Now the old girl said " It would be surprising
Though the gorilla is very proficient
In time the gorilla's desires |

Que les femelles du canton Contemplaient un puissant gorille, Sans souci du qu'en dira-t-on ; Avec impudeur, ces commères Lorgnaient même un endroit précis Que, rigoureusement, ma mère M'a défendu d'nommer ici. Gare au gorille !…
Tout à coup, la prison bien close,
L'patron de la ménagerie
Celles-là même qui, naguère,
Tout le monde se précipite
'Bah ! soupirait la centenaire,
supposez qu'un de vous puisse être,
Mais, par malheur, si le gorille
La suite serait délectable, |

It would be suprising and uncanny sorry....CRS strikes again. |
