Shirley Temple

Once Mother said "My little pet<br /> You ought to learn your alphabet!"<br /> So in my soup I used to get<br /> All the letters of the alphabet<br /> I learned them all from A to Z<br /> And now my Mother's giving meAnimal crackers in my soup<br /> Monkeys and rabbits loop the loop<br /> Gosh, oh gee! but I have fun<br /> Swallowing animals one by oneIn every bowl of soup I see<br /> Lions and tigers watching me<br /> I make 'em jump right through a hoop<br /> Those animal crackers in my soupWhen I get hold of the big bad wolf<br /> I just push him under to drown<br /> Then I bite him in a million bits<br /> And I gobble him right down!When they're inside me where it's dark<br /> I walk around like Noah's Ark<br /> I stuff my tummy like a goop<br /> With animal crackers in my soup!Animal crackers in my soup<br /> Do funny things to me<br /> They make me think my neighborhood<br /> Is a big menagerieFor instance, there's our Janitor<br /> His name is Mr. Klein<br /> And when he hollers at us kids<br /> He reminds me of a lionThe grocer is so big and fat<br /> He has a big mustache<br /> He looks just like a walrus<br /> Just before he takes a splash!<br /> <br /> Songwriters<br /> HENDERSON, RAY / KOEHLER, TED / CAESAR, IRVINGPublished by<br /> Lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.Lyrics provided by TANCODEhttps://damnlyrics.com/" readonly=""/>
