All the forest is mighty self-conscious And its creatures no longer are free; Even cute monkey maids do not bathe in the gla For a movie director might see. Grxce the camera came to the jungle Cries of courting no longer are heard And the male kangaroo doesn’t yodel “Yoo Hoo"— For the microphone catches each word. All the insects appointed a censor To observe every amorous cye, And the snake in the grass doesn't ogle his lass As she wriggles flirtatiously by.
