THE 'LOGICAL GARDENS
Oh, look from the window, watch the door;
If he comes round the corner, scream and roar!
For Daddy's going to take us four
On a 'bus to the 'Logical Gardens.
If he comes round the corner, scream and roar!
For Daddy's going to take us four
On a 'bus to the 'Logical Gardens.
And there the chimpanzee will scratch,
The lions grumble in their patch;
And only fancy! vultures hatch
Their young in the 'Logical Gardens!
The lions grumble in their patch;
And only fancy! vultures hatch
Their young in the 'Logical Gardens!
We all shall hear the leopards swear
When keepers feed them in their lair—
Let's buy a bun for the frosty bear
On his pole in the 'Logical Gardens.
When keepers feed them in their lair—
Let's buy a bun for the frosty bear
On his pole in the 'Logical Gardens.

Won't baby have to look up high
When elephants go pounding by
With backs right up against the sky
In the beautiful 'Logical Gardens?
When elephants go pounding by
With backs right up against the sky
In the beautiful 'Logical Gardens?
And there we're all to have our tea,
Not fifty yards from the chimpanzee,
And boa constrictors close will be
To our cups in the 'Logical Gardens!
Not fifty yards from the chimpanzee,
And boa constrictors close will be
To our cups in the 'Logical Gardens!
And Daddy's promised me and Jake
To stop a keeper and to make
Him show the snake that ate the snake
For his lunch in the 'Logical Gardens.
To stop a keeper and to make
Him show the snake that ate the snake
For his lunch in the 'Logical Gardens.
Apes captured on the Guinea Coast,
And crested parrots in a host—
There's Daddy by the pillar-post!
Hurrah for the 'Logical Gardens!
And crested parrots in a host—
There's Daddy by the pillar-post!
Hurrah for the 'Logical Gardens!
