## Summary

The zoo puts on a play, reinacting the story of Noah’s Ark. The song begins with a title card of the song and the curtains opening to start the play. It opens up with some of the animals hanging around or playing music. It’s until Noah (played by Mario) walks up to them and gathers them all in a circle. He warns all the animals that there’s a flood heading their way, but luckily, he built an ark to save all of them. After a sequence listing the animals on the ark, it continues with the animals proceeding to board the ark. As they’re doing this, Noah alerts them about heavy rain. It then shows the “rain” being poured by Pedro, Mía, and Teo, and then it gets poured directly onto Chulo and Winona, as they complain that they’re getting wet. The sequence listing the animals repeats again twice. Afterwards, the same rain scene also repeats again. Afterwards, the sequence listing the animals repeats 4 more times, although the latter half is sung faster. The video ends with Chulo and Winona again getting “rain” poured on them.

## Letra

(Música)

Un día Noé a la selva fue

puso a los animales alrededor de él

"El Señor está enfadado el diluvio va a caer

no se preocupen porque yo los salvaré"

Y estaba el cocodrilo y el orangután

dos pequeñas serpientes y el águila real

el gato, el topo, y el elefante, no falta ninguno

tan sólo no se ven a los monitos

Cuando los animales empezaron a subir

Noé vio en el cielo un gran nubarrón

y gota a gota, empezó a llover

(Señor, nos estamos mojando)

Y estaba el cocodrilo y el orangután

dos pequeñas serpientes y el águila real

el gato, el topo, y el elefante, no falta ninguno

tan sólo no se ven a los monitos

Y estaba el cocodrilo y el orangután

dos pequeñas serpientes y el águila real

el gato, el topo, y el elefante, no falta ninguno

tan sólo no se ven a los monitos

Cuando los animales empezaron a subir

Noé vio en el cielo un gran nubarrón

y gota a gota, empezó a llover

(Señor, nos estamos mojando)

Y estaba el cocodrilo y el orangután

dos pequeñas serpientes y el águila real

el gato, el topo, y el elefante, no falta ninguno

tan sólo no se ven a los monitos

Y estaba el cocodrilo y el orangután

dos pequeñas serpientes y el águila real

el gato, el topo, y el elefante, no falta ninguno

tan sólo no se ven a los monitos

(Música)

Y estaba el cocodrilo y el orangután

dos pequeñas serpientes el águila real

el gato, el topo, y el elefante, no falta ninguno

tan sólo no se ven a los monitos

Y estaba el cocodrilo y el orangután

dos pequeñas serpientes y el águila real

el gato, el topo, y el elefante, no falta ninguno

tan sólo no se ven a los monitos

(Música)
