He's truly a champ, a hero,
afraid of nothing.
He'll teach the Iguana to climb
and the Snake to slither.
The Parrots, dressed in riotous colors,
want to play, they teach him
to caw - - - caw!
As the parade marches by,
and Curlytop stops to salute our flag,
we're reminded of another little girl,
one who helped to cheer our country up,
while in the grip of a terrible depression.
