There are animals everywhere

My trunk is long and my skin is gray 
I hang in a cave and I sleep in the day
 
I have a coat that's woolly and white 
I crow loudly at day's first light 

I slide through the grass; I'm long and thin 
I have horns on my head and hair on my chin
 
The farmer feeds me and gathers my eggs 
My neck is long and so are my legs
 
I have powerful jaws and a rough, tough hide 
There's a pouch on my stomach where baby can ride
    
I scamper through the house and nibble on cheese 
With my long arms I swing through the trees 

Repeat Chorus

Make way for the parade of colors
They are marching all around
There is purple and pink, red and green  
Yellow, orange, blue and brown
Make way for the parade of colors,
They are marching near and far
At the sound of the bell, they will stop
And stand right where they are

Purple and pink, slowly shrink
Yellow, shake like Jello
Brown and green, do a sideways lean
Orange and black, jump back
White and pink, wiggle and wink
Red and blue shake a shoe
Purple, black, orange and brown,
All tiptoe and turn around

Make way for the parade of colors,
They are marching all around
There is purple and pink, black and white
Yellow, orange, blue and brown
Make way for the parade of colors,
They are marching near and far
At the sound of the bell, they will stop
And stand right where they are

Red, nod your head; yellow, wave hello
Blue and black, both clap
White, reach high; Yellow, reach low
Green, reach somewhere in between
Pink, blue, green and purple,
Hop and turn in a circle
Orange and white, side step right
Red and brown, spin around

Make way for the parade of colors
They are marching all around
At the sound of the bell, they will stop
And all sit down
