Alvin And The Chipmunks - Talk To The Animals Lyrics
If I could talk to the animals, just imagine it, Chattin' with a chimp in chimpanzee, Imagine talking to a tiger, chatting with a cheetah, What a neat achievement it would be! If I could talk to the animals, learn their languages, Maybe get 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, And I would curse in fluent kangaroo, If people ask 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 reparteeIf I could walk with the animals, talk with the animals, Grunt and squeak and squawk with the animals, And they could talk to me! If I consulted with quadrupedsThink what fun we'd have asking over crocodiles for tea! Or maybe lunch with two or three lions, walruses and sea lionsWhat a lovely place the world would be! If I spoke slang to orangutansThe advantages why any fool on earth could plainly see! Discussing Eastern art and dramasWith intellectual llamasThat's a big step forward you'll agree! I'd learn to speak in antelope and turtleAnd my Pekinese would be extremely goodIf I were asked to sing in hippopotamusI'd say "whynotamous?" and I would! If I could parlay with pachydermsIt's a fairy tale worthy of Hans Anderson and GrimmA man who walks with the animals and talks with the animalsGrunts and squeaks and squawks with the animals and they could talk to him! I'd study every creature's languageSo I could speak to all of them on siteIf friends said "can he talk in crab or maybe pelican?"You'd say "I canny can" and you'd be right! And if you just stop and think of itAin't no doubt of itI'm gonna win a place in historyIf I could walk with the animalsTalk with the animalsGrunt and squeak and squawk with the animalsAnd they could squeak and squawk and speak and talk to me! Hey, fellas and just stack, thanks a lot!
