Lyrics: Melanie Safka. Animal Crackers.

Oh, eat your animal crackers
Cause my mother told me so long ago
If you eat your animal crackers
The children in Europe won't starve anymore
Ha, ha, ha ha ha, ha ha ha

Oh once, I went on a diet
A carbo-hydrate diet ain't nice
Cause you can't eat animal crackers
So I'm gonna stay a fattie for all of my life
Ha ha ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha ha
But some people think that fatties are nice, yeah!

I love eating ice cream
Chocolate, vanilla and butter pecan
But I best love animal crackers
Cause I love helping my fellow man
Yeah, I really do

Did you ever hear of Alice's restaurant?
I eat at Alice's restaurant year after year
She makes an animal cracker pizza, hah
And she gives animal crackers out free with the beer
Oooh, let's give Alice a great big cheer
She knows the age of the animal crackers is here
Ah, animal crackers are in this year
Aha ha ha ha
Oh, fa la la la la, la la la la!
