AN INVITATION TO THE ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS by ANONYMOUS

First Line: I HAVE FOUND OUT A GIG-GIG-GIFT FOR MY FUF-FUF-FAIR
Last Line: TO WITNESS THE BUB-BUB-BEAUTIFUL PIP-PIP-PELICAN SWALLOW THE L-L-LIVE FUF-FUF-FISH!
Subject(s): SPEECH DISORDERS;ZOOS; STUTTERING;MUTENESS;
I HAVE found out a gig-gig-gift for my fuf-fuf-fair,
I have found where the rattlesnakes bub-bub-breed;
Will you co-co-come, and I'll show you the bub-bub-bear,
And the lions and tit-tit-tigers at fuf-fuf-feed.

I know where the co-co-cockatoo's song
Makes mum-mum-melody through the sweet vale;
Where the mum-monkeys gig-gig-grin all the day long,
Or gracefully swing by the tit-tit-tit-tail.

You shall pip-play, dear, some did-did-delicate joke
With the bub-bub-bear on the tit-tit-top of his pip-pip-pip-pole;
But observe, 'tis forbidden to pip-pip-poke
At the bub-bub-bear with your pip-pip-pink pip-pip-pip-pip-parasol!

You shall see the huge elephant pip-pip-play,
You shall gig-gig-gaze on the stit-stit-stately raccoon;
And then, did-did-dear, together we'll stray
To the cage of the bub-bub-blue-faced bab-bab-boon.

You wished (I r-r-remember it well,
And I lul-lul-loved you the m-m-more for the wish)
To witness the bub-bub-beautiful pip-pip-pelican swallow the l-l-live little
fuf-fuf-fish!
