I'm a very friendly lion called Parsley.
I am always very glad to see you wave.
But please don't shout or speak to me too harshly.
Because I'm not particularly brave.
And on this inauspicious day, He slipped his hand and ran away, He hadn't gone a yard when bang, With open jaws a lion sprang! And hungrily began to eat the boy, beginning at his feet.
Anyone remember this one? I had to learn it for some school thing about lions when I was about 6 and for some reason it's stuck with me:
Tiny Tony had a pony
he fed it tea and cakes
Brother Brian had a lion
he fed it juicy steaks
Tiny Tony rode his pony
to the local park
Brother Brian and his lion
followed after dark
Tiny Tony and his pony
vanished without trace
Brother Brian and his lion
licked each others face!
