There were green alligators and long-necked geese,
Some humpty-backed camels and some chimpanzees;
Some cats, and rats, and elephants,
But, as sure as you're born,
The loveliest of all was the unicorn.

What a great song. Shel Silverstein wrote it, as I recall.

Last night my band played it at a party at the local American Legion. Got everybody in the place singing along. Wonderful!
