Uncle Vy has an elephant eye and an Uncle Vy eye
At the zoo
An elephant has an Uncle Vy eye and an elephant eye
Uncle Vy swaps mouths with the elephant
Uncle Vy's mouth has a trunk he eats sugarcane
When he walks on the street whoever sees him says
Hey, hey, a man who eats with an elephant's mouth
While at the zoo
There is an elephant who eats with Uncle Vy's mouth 
That's why he eats rice all day.
