If we could talk to the animals,
Just imagine it,

Chatting to a chimp in chimpanzee
Imagine talking to a tiger,
Chatting to 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 would converse in polar bear
And python
And we would curse in fluent kangaroo
If people asked us,
Can you speak rhinoceros?
We’d say, “of courseros!
Can’t you?”

If we conferred with our furry friends,
Man to animal,
Think of 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 squeak and squawk
And speak and talk to us

If people asked us,
Can you speak rhinoceros?
We’d say, “of courseros!
Can’t you

If we conferred with our furry friends,
Man to animal,
Think of 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 squeak and squawk
And speak and talk to us
