Going on a Lion Hunt
We're going on a lion hunt,
We're not afraid!
Got my
canteen by my side,
And my binoculars too.
Coming up
to short grass now
Can't go under
it --
Can't go around it --
We'll have to go through it!
swish, swish,
swish, swish
(push
grass with small movements of hands)

going on a lion hunt,
We're not afraid!

And my binoculars too.

Can't go under
it --
Can't go around it --
We'll have to go through it!
swoosh, swoosh,
swoosh, swoosh
(push grass aside with big hand movements)

hands slowly off the ground as if stuck in mud)
