Does anyone know a joke that ends with the punchline:?!
Question: because "its a long way to Tipperary"? We heard this from a lovely ex priest who forsook celibacy for the fleshpots of marriage. Unfortunately, I can't recall most of it. Help, please!

It's the 1930's and a member of the New York explorers club is hunting for rare animals in darkest Africa.
He comes across the strangest looking beast he has ever seen. It's a quarter part elephant, a quarter monkey, a quarter hippo and a quarter tiger and with a very sweet disposition.
They cage it and ship it to New York to the explorers club where he exhibits the creature that he calls a "Rarey" and gives a talk on it before the members.
Over a short period of time he notices that the Rarey is growing extremely fast and is soon too large to keep in a cage. He decides to return it to its home in Africa even though there is not enough food around to keep it alive. They reach the edge of a tall cliff and they both look over knowing that the Rarey, unable to survive, must go over the edge to his death.
The explorer says "Good bye old friend I will miss you". To his surprise the Rarey speaks for the first time. It looks down over the steep cliff and sings, "It's a long way to Tipperary".
I heard something like that a few years ago. I can't help too much with the main context of the joke but it was something to do with fictional creatures called "raries" and someone or something tipping them from a cliff.
I know it doesn't give you the answer you are looking for but hopefully it will jog your memory!
Isn't this about an animal called a "Rary" which was said to foretell it's own death and when the owner decided to get rid of it by throwing it over a cliff the creature said "It's a long way to tip a rary
PS It needs dragging out as a shaggy dog story.
The basics of it are thats theres a creature called a "rarey", and its necessary to move it a long way in a wheelbarrow, then tip it out at the end.
This joke got stolen in 1984 when Zola Bud collided with Mary Decker.
The joke became - Zola Bud has brought out a record - i'ts the wrong way to trip a Mary - it's on the Decker label
no help here, SORRY'
