rah, hurrah_ for the circus band! And the red-plumed horses, oh, see them prance And daintily lift their hoofs and dance, While beautiful ladies with golden curls Are jingling their bridles of gold and pearls, And close behind Come every kind Of animal cages great and small, O how I wonder what's in them all! Here's one that's open and glaring there Is the shaggiest snow-white polar bear! _Woof!_ but I wonder what we'd do If his bars broke loose right now, don't you? And O dear me! Just look and see That pink-cheeked lady in skirts of gauze And the great big lion with folded paws! O me! O my! I'm glad that I Am not in that lion's cage, because _Suppose he'd open his horrible jaws!_ --But look! the clown is coming! Of course Facing the tail of a spotted horse And shouting out things to make folks laugh, And grinning up at the tall giraffe That placidly paces along and looks Just like giraffes in the picture-books! And there are the elephants, two and two, Lumbering on as they always do!  THE FIFE AND THE FIDDLE HURRAH HURRAH FOR THE CIRCUS BAND AND THE RED PLUMED HORSES OH SEE THEM PRANCE AND DAINTILY LIFT THEIR HOOFS AND DANCE WHILE BEAUTIFUL LADIES WITH GOLDEN CURLS ARE JINGLING THEIR BRIDLES OF GOLD AND PEARLS AND CLOSE BEHIND COME EVERY KIND OF ANIMAL CAGES GREAT AND SMALL OH HOW I WONDER WHAT'S IN THEM ALL HERE'S ONE THAT'S OPEN AND GLARING THERE IS THE SHAGGIEST SNOW WHITE POLAR BEAR WOOF BUT I WONDER WHAT WE'D DO IF HIS BARS BROKE LOOSE RIGHT NOW DON'T YOU AND OH DEAR ME JUST LOOK AND SEE THAT PINK CHEEKED LADY IN SKIRTS OF GAUZE AND THE GREAT BIG LION WITH FOLDED PAWS OH ME OH MY I'M GLAD THAT I AM NOT IN THAT LION'S CAGE BECAUSE SUPPOSE HE'D OPEN HIS HORRIBLE JAWS BUT LOOK THE CLOWN IS COMING OF COURSE FACING THE TAIL OF A SPOTTED HORSE AND SHOUTING OUT THINGS TO MAKE FOLKS LAUGH AND GRINNING UP AT THE TALL GIRAFFE THAT PLACIDLY PACES ALONG AND LOOKS JUST LIKE DRAUGHTS IN THE PICTURE BOOKS AND THERE ARE THE ELEPHANTS TWO AND TWO LUMBERING ON AS THEY ALWAYS DO
