Animal crackers

(T. Koehler / I. Caesar / R. Henderson) 
Shirley Temple

Once Mother said My litle pet 
you ought to learn your alphabet
 So in my soup I used to get 
All the letters of the alphabet
I learned them all from A to Z 
And now my Mothers giving me 

Animal crackers in my soup 
Monkeys and rabbits loop the loop 
Gosh oh gee but I have fun 
Swallowing animals one by one 

In every bowl of soup I see 
Lions and Tigers watching me 
I make 'em jump right through a hoop 
Those animal crackers in my soup 

When I get hold of the big bad wolf
I just push him under to drown
Then I bite him in a million bits
And I gobble him right down

When their inside me where its dark
I walk around like Noahs Arc
I stuff my tummy like a goop
With animal crackers in my soup

Animal crackers in my soup 
Do funny things to me 
They make me think my neighbourhood 
Is a big menagerie 

For instance there's our Janitor 
His name is Mr Klein 
And when he Hollers at us kids 
He reminds me of a Lion 

The Grocer is so big and fat 
He has a big moustache 
He looks just like a Walrus 
Just before he takes a splash
