Animal Day - Lyrics by Stan Ridgway


Lyrics

Grandma is a rhino
My brother is a dog
I can tell it's animal day
'cause my best friend just turned into a frog
Mommy is a monkey
My girlfriend is a horse
But i'm not turning into anything¨c¨c
I never caused animal wars!

Uh-oh!
Fur has covered my hands!
I'd better run to the mirror!
I'm an animal!


Chorus:
It's animal day
It's animal day
It's animal day
It's animal day



Now the animals have cars
They're starting to run us over
Notches on the steering wheel
My pet is calling me rover
Deers are hunting for humans
Seals keep crushing our heads
Animals betting on us at the track
My animal's in my bed


Chorus repeat
