In yellowest, hottest Africa,
In its deepest heart,
An event of weirdness maxima
Suddenly did start.

An elephant said unthinkingly
"There’ll be a Flood as well!"
A giraffe has unexpectedly
Fallen for - a gazelle!

Barks and shrieking breaking out,
But old parrot puffs his chest,
And from the branches loudly shouts:
"Giraffe is tall so sees the best!"

"Well so what if she has horns"
Giraffe cried lovingly -
Nowadays amongst our fauna
Heads are equal, see.

"And if my friends and family
Don’t like her, my word,
Well, don’t blame me,
Yes, I’ll leave the herd!"

Barks and shrieking breaking out
But old parrot puffs his chest
And from the branches loudly shouts:
"Giraffe is tall so sees the best!"

Papa Gazelle, why should he ever
Want such a son, they said?
To papa, it’s the same, sec, whether
It’s in or on his head.

But brother giraffe goes and yells
"What stupid imbeciles!"
So tall giraffe and small gazelle
Went to live - with crocodiles!"

Barks and shrieking breaking out
But old parrot puffs his chest
And from the branches loudly shouts:
"Giraffe is tall so sees the best!"

In yellowest, hottest Africa
Ideals no more appear.
Giraffe papa and mama cry
Out a crocodile tear.

But sadness is now quite rife
There’s no law for a while.
Giraffe girl’s is now the wife
Of slithery crocodile!

Even if giraffe screwed out,
Please give him, guys, a rest
The one to blame was the one to shout:
"Giraffe is tall so sees the best!"
