作曲:L.Bricusse
If we could talk to the animals just imagine it
Chatting with a chimp in chimpanzee
Imagine talking to a tiger
Chatting with a cheetah
What a need achievement it would be
If we could talk to the animals learn their languages
Maybe take an animal degree
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 courseorous 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 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
Walrus is a sea lion
What a lovely place the world would be
We'd learn to speak in antelope and turtle
Our pecanese would be extremely good
If we were asked to sing in hippopotamus
We'd say why not amus 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 study every living creatures language
So we could speak to all of
Them on sight
If you said can you talk and climb a fell again
I'd say like hell I can and and I'd be right
If we all spoke like animals who needs english
Gradually we 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
