The animal fair

[comloulou]

Can anyone tell me the full words to the kiddies song that goes...
we went to the animal fair, the birds and the beast were there.....
I remember 'the elephant sneezed and fell on its knees but what became of the monkey, monkey monkey...'
was this a mad dream or does the song exist?

ANIMAL FAIR

We went to the animal fair, all the birds and the bees were there,

By the light of the moon the great baboon was combing his golden hair,

The monkey fell out of his bunk, and slid down the elephant's trunk,

The elephant sneezed, and fell on his knees, and what became of the

Monkey, monkey, monkey, monkey, monkey monkey, monkey, monkey?

Cannot find an attribution - generally said to be anonymous. Sung round the campfires at scout camp (or in my case Boys Brigade Camp)

Ah, the memories that song brings, back pouring rain, soaked to the skin, smoke everywhere and burnt sausages onna stick. The good old days!!! Thanks Andomeda
