ANIMAL HIDE AND SEEK
By Dana Cohenour ©Dana Cohenour; 2020
Hide and seek is the game today
Lots of animals want to play
Let’s see if we can guess which place
All the animals call home base
Hey, who’s that up in the tree
Lookin’ fine and feathery
Sweet bird we could have guessed
It’s you hiding in your nest!
Olly olly olly oxen free
Where can all the animals be?
Hide and seek, come on let’s play
Bird come out of your nest
Hey, who’s that? What’s that buzz?
We see black and yellow fuzz
Peek-a-boo, who do we see?
Come out of your hive, little bee!
Hey, who’s that behind the hay?
Hiding on the farm today?
Mrs. Cow… that’s who!
Come out of your barn, we see you!
Olly olly olly oxen free
Where can all the animals be?
Hide and seek, come on let’s play
Cow come out of your barn, bee come out of your hive, bird come out of your nest.
Hey, who’s that digging underground?
Bunnies in a burrow, that’s who we found
Here’s another tunnel, we see you mole!
Ready or not, come out of your hole!
Hey, who’s swimming in the coral reef?
To many fish to count, good grief!
Urchins, clams and turtles too
Hiding in the ocean, turquoise blue
Olly olly olly oxen free
Where can all the animals be?
Hide and seek, come on let’s play
Fish come out of your reef, mole come out of your hole, bunnies come out of your burrows,
Cow come out of your barn, bee come out of your hive, bird come out of your nest
Hey, over there! Is that a bat?
How’s he hanging upside down like that?
This cave is big enough to share
Even with a big brown bear!
Hey, who’s that with the golden hair?
It’s mama lion with her babies there
If we hear a roar, we’d better beware
‘Cuz Lion’s coming out of her lair!
Olly olly olly oxen free
Where can all the animals be?
Hide and seek, come on let’s play
Lion come out of your lair, bear and bat come out of your cave,
Fish come out of your reef, mole come out of your hole, bunnies come out of your burrows,
Cow come out of your barn, bee come out of your hive, bird come out of your nest
Olly olly olly oxen free
Where can all the animals be?
Hide and seek, come on let’s play
Olly olly olly oxen free
Olly olly olly oxen free
Where can all the animals be?
Hide and seek, come on let’s play
Olly olly olly oxen free
