Skipper walked through the zoo at night while all the other animals were sleeping. He did it every night, he would patrol the zoo to make sure everybody was safe and sound. He enjoyed keeping people safe, it made him feel better about his own life. He smiled as he continued walking, so far he hadn't seen anything to arouse suspicion.

He was about to call it a night when he heard music. Music coming from the area of the gift shop where the animals met. Skipper was curious and decided to go to the shop to investigate.

I'm just whippin' round the bay

Skipper continued walking over to the gift shop, he was conscious of the song. But the lyrics made no sense.

I got daddy's charge card hey.

'Strange' Skipper thought to himself as he continued to walk. Soon he had reached the gift shop.

Said i'm whipping round the bay, hey hey hey hey

Skipper started to climb up to the window of the gift shop. It was an extremely difficult task without help from the other men in his squad, but he managed it nonetheless.

i've got daddy's charge card hey

Once Skipper had reached the top of the window and peered inside he was shocked at what he saw.

I saw my mommy, i saw my daddy.

"Mort what are you doing here so late?" Skipper asked the lemur who continued to stare at the boombox.

I saw my mommy, she was on top of me.

"I'm serious Mort." Skipper said as he climbed into the gift shop. He began making his way to the small lemur.

Well won't you tell me why it is so.

Skipper had finally reached the little lemur and put his hand on his shoulder. The lemur stayed still, with his left hand clutched into a fist.

In this world of pain and doubt, i've got to purge my mind with shout.

Skipper chuckled in his mind as the lemur abruptly turned around and shook off the hand of Skipper. He stared at Skipper with a strange look in his eye. Almost like he wanted to kill him.

But can you tell me why i feel so lumpy?

Skipper chuckled as the lemur ran up to him with his fist clenched. It appeared that he was going to punch him, but considering the lemur's size. It didn't seem likely to do much damage.

Lumpy lumpy lumpy lumpy

Skipper felt a sharp pain as the lemur punched him. Pain that was very unusual in a punch from a creature 6 times Mort's size.

Life is painful, life is long.

Skipper looked down and was shocked to see blood originating from the spot where Mort had punched him. Closer inspection revealed that a knife was stuck in his stomach.

Life is short, it's like a song.

Skipper gasped with realization as it struck him what had happened. Mort hadn't punched, he had stabbed him. It was Ironic that he had gone against many things in his lifetime. Killer whales, ninja penguins, insane otters. How ironic that his fate was decided by a lemur less than a quarter of his age. His body lay in the gift shop as the song continued to play.

My life will go,

Who knows where though,

I will go,

I know,

One thing,

One thing for sure,

Gonna end up,

End up in the ground,

And one day,

My flesh will rot away,

I will be found,

A thousand years from now,

And all the things,

I said and brought,

They'll be bought,

They'll be bought,

And all the things,

And all the wings I never wore,

I got Daddy
