There’s always room for one more. My big band version!!

I was sitting down to eat,
just about to begin
There was a knock on the door that said,
“Can I come in?”
I opened the door and what did I see?
It was a great big elephant looking at me!
I said “Oh no! What you gonna do?”
You got enough for one,
you got enough for two
“I’ve got enough for me,
yes, that’s true.
If I’ve got enough for me,
I guess I’ve got enough for you.”

If I’ve got enough for me,
I guess I’ve got enough for you.”

It was a hairy gorilla that was looking at me!

It was a big blue whale that was looking at me!

It was an itty bitty caterpillar looking at me!
I said “Oh no! What you gonna do?”
I don’t think there’s room for you.”
She said, “Yes there is.
I’m sure there’s room.”
She walked in the door
and the house went BOOM!
