A hippo orders a drink
One hot day,
a hippo went into a cafe,
sat down at a table
and ordered a large glass
of orange juice with ice.
The waiter was very surprised
to see a hippo,
and to hear it talk,
but he got it the glass
of orange juice with ice.
The waiter thought
the hippo knew nothing about money,
and so, when the hippo gave him
a five pound note,
the waiter gave him just one pound
in change.
"I hope you enjoyed the orange juice,"
said the waiter,
"We don't often get hippopotamuses in here."
"With orange juice at four pounds a glass,"
said the hippo,
"I'm not surprised."
