There is a unique animal and I want to tell you
It’s one you’ll not find in any world zoo
Deep in the jungles it was seen
It’s part brown part yellow and mostly green
It groans like a lion
And snorts like a boar
It has no tail
And Oh…there is more
No one knows if it’s a boy or a girl
But they do know it’s the only one in the world
They think it knows too ’cause it’s always sad
Because it’s just one…there’s no Mom or Dad
Yes it’s truly an orphan without family or home
It’s whole lifelong it will just have to roam
It lives along the river banks and walks very slow
Looking like a cross between two animals we know
The front looks Hippopotamus and the rear Rhinoceros
So those that have seen it call it the Preposterous
All agree it’s a pity that the ugly Preposterous
Has very little chance of ever being adopterous
