Morning report (English)

Chimps are going ape
Giraffes remain above it all
Elephants remember that is what I can't recall
crocidiles are snapping up fresh offers from the banks
showed interest in my nesting but I quickly said no thanks
we haven't payed the hornbills and the vultures have a hunch
not everyone invited will be coming back from lunch

This is the morning report
gives you the long and the short
every grunt, roar and snort, not a tale/tail I distort
