Album: The Best of Melanie
Oh, eat your animal crackers
'Cause my mother told me so long ago,
"If you eat your animal crakers,
The children in Europe won't starve anymore"
Hahaha hahahaha hahaha
Oh I love eating icecream,
Chocolate, vanilla and butter pecan,
But I best love animal crackers
'Cause I love helping my fellow man
Yeah, I eat more crackers than anyone can
Hahaha haha
(I forgot the words ONCE! Thank you!)
Once I went on a diet
(that's the freudian part, is it, when I forget it)
Once I went on a diet
A carbohydrate diet ain't nice
'Cause you can't eat animal crackers
So, I'm gonna stay a fatty for all of my life,
Hahaha hahaha
But some people think that fatties are nice, yeah
Did you ever hear of Alice's restaurant?
I eat at Alice's restaurant year after year
She makes an animal cracker pizza, ha
And she gives animal crackers out free with the beer
Oh, let's give Alice a great big cheer
She knows the age
Ah, animal crackers are in this year!
Ha ha hahaha
Oh, lalalalala lala lala
I wrote this song in Columbus, Missouri
I was had a day off, so I, I wanted to go to the country,
and that wasn't very difficult because the country was
Columbus, Missouri is the country
And I walked outside my door and I saw a big cow and I said,
"Oh, moo, you know, don't you, you know that I don't eat cows?"
And the cow didn't say anything except: "Mmmm, Melanie"
And so, and so I wrote him this song,
and I wrote it really For All The Cows
