rex harrison - talk to the animals lyrics
lyrics/music: leslie bricusse
alb-m: 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!
