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

Animal Crackers in my soup
Monkeys and rabbits loop the loop
Gosh oh gee but I have fun
swa11owing 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 push him under to drown
Then I bite him in a million bits
And I gobble him right down

When they're inside me where it's dark
I walk around like Noah's ark
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 neighborhood
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
