Yesterday's Nonsense

Yesterday's Nonsense I don't like animal crackers Dewey, I'd rather have eggs and Ham. I've never liked animal crackers Dewey, You know what a fiend I am. Fix me a sandwich Dewey, With an intellectual swing Give me a soda Dewey, Make me laugh and sing. I don't like animal crackers Dewey, That's all you want to eat. All that is good is not pretty, And all that is pure isn't sweet. I don't like animal crackers Dewey, You know they're the Devil's tools Jesus didn't eat crackers, They're only made for fools. Quick, get me a pizza Dewey, With a lot of garlic and cheese. Don't offer me animal crackers. It's not at all funny to tease. I don't like animal crackers Dewey, They are forbidden fruit. It's nice to have ham and gravy, The better folk it suits. Don't feed me animal crackers, Though they may taste sweet indeed. They're poison to the stomach, And make the intestines bleed.
