Talk To The Animals - Rex Harrison lyrics

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

Chatting with a chimp in Chimpanzee
Imagine talking to a tiger, chatting with a cheetah

    TALK TO THE ANIMALS

    Lyrics/Music: Leslie Bricusse
    Album: 1967 - Doctor Dolittle (OST) - 04

    ... [missing] thinks what do you means
    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 we could talk to the animals, learn all 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, python,
    And I would curse in fluent kangaroo,
    If people ask me "can you speak rhinocerous?"
    I'd say "of courserous! Can't you?"

    I conferred with our furry friends, man to animal,
    Think of the amazing repartee
    If 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 quadrupeds
    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 orangutans
    The advantages any fool on earth could 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 Pekinese would be extremely good
    If I were asked to sing in hippopotamus
    I'd say "whynotamous?" and (I) would!

    If I could parlay with pachyderms
    It's a fairy tale worthy of Hans Anderson and Grimm
    A man who walks with the animals, talks with the animals
    Grunts and squeaks and squawks with the animals
    All an easy just think of it and they could talk to me!
