(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

A hippo is bounding around on my head.
Gorillas¹ are banging on drums.
A rhino² is charging me full speed ahead
while a crocodile's eyeing my thumbs.

A rattlesnake's winding³ his way up my side.
A tiger is sniffing⁴ my clothes.
A grizzly⁵ just grabbed me, his mouth open wide.
A tarantula's perched on my nose.

I'm drowning, surrounded by man-eating sharks.
An elephant sits on my chest.
Yes, that's how it feels when the teacher remarks,
"Grab your pencils. It's time for the test."
