Original text and translations

{{Miss Pringle

A snake is a lizard without any legs. And a bat is a bird with no beak. A camel’s a llama (but very much calmer), While a whale is a fish with physique.

(Physique is a word that I like to slip in Whenever the chat starts to bore me. My friends start to giggle, Their hips start to wiggle, And I know now that they won’t ignore me.)

A cow is a horse which has udders below. And a pig’s like a dog with a snout. A penguin’s a bird That is just too absurd, While a peacock’s an absolute knockout.

You can tell that they teach me a lot at my school. Miss Pringle’s a very good teacher. She’s ever so wise, And her beautiful eyes Make you just want to run up and squeeze her! }}
