I’d like to pet a giant panda, (STROKE / PANDA)
ride astride a rhino (RIDE / RHINO)
and swim with a baby shark (do, do, do, do, do) (SWIM / SHARK)

I’d tame a wild tiger, (TIGER)
lie beside a leopard (LIE / LEOPARD)
and join in a chimpanzee’s laugh (ha, ha, ha) (CHIMPANZEE / LAUGH)

We must protect all the animals and let them live their lives (SAVE / WILD ANIMALS / LIVE)
We must respect all their habitats or else they won’t survive (HELP / ENVIRONMENT / DIE)

I’d like to pet a giant panda, (STROKE / PANDA)
ride astride a rhino (RIDE / RHINO)
and swim with a baby shark (do, do, do, do, do) (SWIM / SHARK)

I’d tame a wild tiger, (TIGER)
lie beside a leopard (LIE / LEOPARD)
and join in a chimpanzee’s laugh (ha, ha, ha) (CHIMPANZEE / LAUGH)

We must protect all the animals each day of every year (SAVE / WILD ANIMALS / ALWAYS)
We must respect all their habitats or else they’ll disappear (HELP / ENVIRONMENT / FINISH)

I’d like to pet a giant panda,
ride astride a rhino
and swim with a baby shark (do, do, do, do, do)
I’d tame a wild tiger,
lie beside a leopard
and join in a chimpanzee’s laugh (ha, ha, ha)
