Once upon a time in the jungle
Peace reigned everywhere in the wild
Everyone was in love and hate banished
Lion was a kind emperor and his rule
Was characterized by fairness
And justice and his subjects
Loved him because his enlightened despotism
Was remarkably not tainted by the
Usual rot of the stench of corruption

Once upon a time in the jungle
Master Jackal gets in his immaculate office
One by one he greets his colleagues
He settles down in his comfortable chair
He reads the newspapers to keep himself
Informed about the scandals of the love
Trysts in the forest and smiling he
Puts the scandal sheet away to hear
The cases of the disputes of the weekend

Once upon a time in the urban jungles a banished
Fairy roams the places of pleasure in your
Arms that are on fire in the spirit of lust
Once upon a time among the city slickers
Away from the sharp claws of the leopards
Out of the sight of the greedy and hungry lions
Definitely far from the clear and present
Dangers of the lurking hippos and the magnificent
Leaps of the cheetahs and the lurking traps
And snares of the hyenas and the ruthless charge
Of the rhinos and the bloody merciless crack
Of the looming crocodile's jaws
I am a fairy that has escaped the mayhem of
The great jungles and I have come to seek
Sanctuary in your loving embrace please
Dig your sharp fingers in my flesh and gaze into
My mysterious eyes and lurk at me as I come
To you and be ruthless to those who want to
Compete with you for the attention of the
Dreamlike qualities of my fairy love
Once upon a time in your life
