Two Lighthearted Songs (1988, 2015) 6’

A Quiet Afternoon, describes the predictable “cultural differences” between a very comfortable cat sleeping in the sun and an energetic, overly enthusiastic dog. Three Hungry Tigers is about, well, three hungry tigers on a rampage in the jungle and the unsuccessful efforts of the other animals to placate them with fruit and berries. (“You fools,” they said with a mighty roar, “we’re not vegetarians, we’re Carnivores!”)
