At the library.

This is the way I learn about lizards,
At the library.

This is the way I learn about lobsters.
Learn about lobsters, learn about lobsters.
This is the way I learn about lobsters,
At the library.

Learn about ladybugs, learn about ladybugs.
This is the way I learn about ladybugs,
At the library.
