Last year when we were at the zoo for our anniversary, Brad got me the cutest little stuffed white tiger cub. So this year, he got me the cutest little stuffed baby giraffe.
I named him Joshua. Not after my brother, but the Raffi song. Does anyone know it? "Joshua Giraffe... He's trapped in a zoo, with Buffalo POOO...." I just couldn't resist. I was thinking though that now Josh is trapped in Iraq with camel poo. Nothing can go wrong-go, though, even if he's not in the Congo...Sorry, momentary interlude of foolishness there. Anyhow, isn't little Joshua Giraffe adorable?

I will probably dream of your baby being born with a long neck and you naming him Joshua Pooh. HA! My daily thoughts usually mingle like that in my dreams. :P
JOSHUA GIRAFFE
Raffi
Joshua Giraffe was born in a zoo
He lived there,too,for two years
And a half he hasn't had a bath
My mommy doesn't lick me
Even when I'm sticky from
Candy floss,candy apples,popcorn,
Soft drinks,jelly beans and gumdrops
And there must be something better
Than living in this cage
But I'm really not to sure
Because I'm really short of age.
Joshua Giraffe was feeling kind of sad
Things were going bad
How little of life he had
Wasting away with no room to play
Trapped in a zoo with buffalo,too.
So he went next door to the elephant
And asked him what to do
I'm wasting away with no room to play
I'm trapped in a zoom with buffalo,too.
The elephant was very old and gray
And he had a huge balloon bottom
He said, Never fear Joshua,
A vision will appear.
That night a dream came to Joshua and
Joshua saw animals,like crazy monkeys
And a whole pile of
Hippypotostropasuses
And flitty moths,moths size 12
And sleazy lizards
and a tribe of nasty saviars
But Joshua wasn't afraid
Because he sang himself this song
Nothing can go wrong-o
I'm in the Kongo
Nothing can go wrong-o
I'm in the Kongo
Nothing can go wrong-o
I'm in the Kongo
Nothing can go wrong-o
I'm in the Kongo
Nothing can go wrong-o
I'm in the Kongo
Nothing can go wrong-o
I'm in the Kongo
Even in his dream he knew
He'd never get away,
Not even for a day
Then a peanut hit him on the nose
Joshua Giraffe was back in the zoo.
What could he do
Awakened from his dream
He'd never be the same
Because of what he'd seen
He'd seen:
Alligators,crocodiles,tree sloth
Anacondas,cobras and
Large winged moths
Orangatangs,baboons eating grapes
Gibbons,rude mandrills and just plain apes.
But Joshua was lucky
He had some special friends
And that day they went to the zoo
But he was up tight so they waited till the night
And they chopped his cage in two
He discovered he could fly and
He soared into the sky with them
Wrapped around his neck
And they haven't come back yet
So if you see them get a net.
That's right,they haven't come back yet.
But when they do,they say they are
Going to free all the animals from their cages
No matter how new or modern
Even some pets,too.
So if on your way home today
You happen to find....
A baboon basking in the balcony
Or a lion licking a lemon in the lobby
Or a python perched in the pantry
A wildebeest in the W.C.
With a turtle twirling in your tub,
Don't be afraid,just say your a friend
Of their friend.
Joshua Giraffe,Joshua,Joshua
Joshua Giraffe,Joshua,Joshua
(woo hoo)
