Chorus
There’s a school in the bush, where little animals go
With a wise old owl teaching them all that they should know
“Good morning class”,
“good morning Professor Owl”
Today we will learn about collective nouns
Professor Owl cleared his throat and asked:
“what do we call a group of baboons, class?”
Right at the back, a little paw went up
“It’s called a troup” said the little lion cub.
And what do we call a group of giraffe?
“A herd” said the little hyena with a laugh.
Chorus
A troupe of baboons, A herd of giraffe, A swarm of bees, An army of ants
A pride of lions, A parliament of owls, A school of fish,
A clutch of chicks
With his glasses on his nose, the Professor asked “And what do we call a group of bees, class?”
Little Tilley tortoise stuck her head out of her shell
“A swarm, sir!” the little tortoise yelled
“And what do we call a group of ants?”
“An army!” said the little meerkat clapping his hands.
Chorus
The professor tapped his desk with his stick & asked
“And what do we call a group of lions, class?”
Little Sally Snake, hissed the answer
“It’s called a pride, ssssschool master”
“And what do we call, a group of owls?”
“A parliament sir!” the whole class yelled.
A flock of birds, A pack of wolves, a school of fish, A colony of frogs
A litter of puppies, a herd of zebra, a gaggle of geese,
A slither of snakes
A troupe of baboons, A herd of giraffe, A swarm of bees, An army of ants
A pride of lions, A parliament of owls, A school of fish,
A clutch of chicks
A flock of birds, A pack of wolves, a school of fish, A colony of frogs
A litter of puppies, a herd of zebra, a gaggle of geese,
A slither of snakes
