Oh, if I 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 and learn their languages |
|
Maybe take an animal degree |
|
I'd study elephant and eagle, buffalo and beagle |
|
Alligator, guinea pig and flea |
|
I would converse in polar bear and python |
|
I would curse in fluent kangaroo |
|
If people asked me, "Can you speak rhinoceros?" |
|
I'd say, "Of courserous, can't you?" |
|
If I conferred with our furry friends, man to animal |
|
Think of the amazing repartee |
|
If I could walk with the animals and talk with the animals |
|
Grunt, squeak and squawk with the animals |
|
And lord, they could talk to me |
|
If I could talk to the animals |
|
Think what fun we'd have asking over crocodiles for tea |
|
Or maybe lunch with two or three lions, walruses and sea lions |
|
What a lovely place the world would be |
|
If I spoke slang to orangutan, oh |
|
The advantages, any fool on earth can plainly see |
|
Discussing Eastern art and dramas with intellectual llamas |
|
That's a big step forward you'll agree |
|
I'd learn to speak in antelope and turtle |
|
My Pekingese would be extremely good |
|
If I were asked to sing in hippopotamus |
|
I'd say, "Whynotamous and I would" |
|
If you stop and think of it, there's no doubt of it |
|
I could win a place in history |
|
If I could walk with the animals and talk with the animals |
|
Grunt, squeak, squawk with the animals |
|
And they could squeak and squawk and speak and talk to me |
|
They would talk to me, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
|
The animals and me, can't you see me with them? |
|
We're walking like friends |
|
Talking like [Incomprehensible] |
