Chinese New Year Song

I sing the Year of the Tiger here but, depending on which year it is, please choose the appropriate animal from the Chinese Zodiac. The song is best sung unaccompanied but the tune is easy to work out and play on the black keys of a keyboard or piano, if you have one available.
