Tune: You Are My Sunshine
You are my porcupine, my only porcupine,
You keep me happy when skies are gray.
I do not care that you are so prickly,
Please don't take my porcupine away.

You are my stinky skunk, my only stinky skunk
You keep me happy when skies are gray.
I do not care that you are so stinky,
Please don't take my skunk away.


Must be a Skunk (Tune: Skip to My Lou)
There is animal we know well
It's black and white, with a terrible smell
Once you've smelled it you can tell
Must be a skunk you're smelling

Skunk, skunk, must be a skunk… (3x)
Must be a skunk you're smelling

If you see a skunk, take it from me
Watch where you step and watch what he sees
Don't scare a skunk or sorry you'll be
Sorry you'll be, my darling!

Skunk, skunk, must be a skunk… (3x)
Must be a skunk you're smelling

When you grow up and think you're so sweet
Take off your shoes and smell your feet!
Smells like a skunk, let me repeat
Must be a skunk you're smelling!

Skunk, skunk, must be a skunk… (3x)
Must be a skunk you're smelling

Prickly Little Porcupine (Tune of Twinkle, Twinkle)
Prickly little porcupine
Please don't poke me with your spine.
Ouch!

The Little Skunk
I stuck my head in a little skunk's hole.
And the skunk said, "Well, bless my soul!"
Take it out clap-clap
Take it out clap-clap
Re-move it!

Well, I didn't take it out, and the little skunk said,
"If you don't take it out, you'll wish you had!"
Take it out clap-clap
Take it out clap-clap
Psss-ssst!

P- U…I removed it too late! pinch nose with fingers as you say this line
