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?â€
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?â€, 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?â€, 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!
