A ROOM FULL OF ANIMALS

by John Houston ‧ RELEASE DATE: Sept. 15, 1973

There's a squirrel in my boot,/ and he's tooting on my flute/ . . . There's a rabbit on my plate,/ and he ate my chocolate cake/ . . . There's a skunk that's in my trunk,/ and he's chewing on a chunk"" . . . and before this singsong hide-and-seek is over Houston's google-eyed curie has found a hippopotamus in the tub as well as a beaver, a bear, an ostrich and a zebra around the nursery, packed them all into the playroom until they fill it up, and then declared, ""I'll take you back to your own home./ Oh, Scoo Bee Doo Bee Zoo Bee Doo Bee, Doyt!"" Either that or strangle them all with The Bright Yellow Rope.
