Talk to the Animals

歌詞

If we could talk to the animals, just imagine it Chatting with a chimp in Chimpanzee Imagine talking to a tiger, chatting with a cheetah What a neat achievement it would be If we could talk to the animals, learn their languages Maybe take an animal degree We'd study Elephant and Eagle, Buffalo and Beagle Alligator, Guinea Pig and Flea We could converse in Polar Bear and Python And we could curse in fluent Kangaroo If people ask us, "Can you speak Rhinoceros?" We'd say, "Of courserous, can't you?" If we conferred with our furry friends, man to animal Think of the all the things we could discuss If we could walk with the animals, talk with the animals Grunt and squeak and squawk with the animals And they could talk to us If we consulted with quadrupeds Think what fun we'd have asking over crocodiles for tea Or maybe lunch with two or three lions, walruses or sea lions What a lovely place the world would be We'd learn to speak in Antelope and Turtle Our Pekingese would be extremely good If we were asked to sing in Hippopotamus We'd say "Whynotamous?", and would And I am sure every octopus, lobster and platypus Certainly would see it as a plus If we could walk with the animals, talk with the animals Grunt and squeak and squawk with the animals And they could talk to us We'd learn to speak in Antelope and Turtle Our Pekingese would be extremely good If we were asked to sing in Hippopotamus We'd say "Whynotamous?", and would If we all spoke like animals, who needs English? Gradually, we'd drop it with no fuss If we could walk with the animals, talk with the animals Grunt and squeak and squawk with the animals And they could squeak and squawk and speak and talk to us
