Fish
Fish swish
Parrot talk
Lion roar
Elephant walk
Snake slither
Sloth slow
Fishy swish
To and fro
Crocodile smile
Leopard leap
Tiger stripe
Caterpillar creep
Panda shy
Monkey tree
Fish swish
To the sea
Eagle eye
Camel hump
Chameleon watch
Kangaroo jump
Jungle drum
Cricket loud
Fishy swish
And be so proud.
