[Intro]
 
D
 
[Verse]
 
D
Little yellow spider, laughing at the snow
Em
Ah, maybe that spider knows something that I don't know
Em
'Cause I'm goddamn cold
D
Little white monkey, staring at the sand
Em
Well, maybe that monkey figured out something I couldn't understand
D
Who knows?
D
Well, I came upon a dancing crab, and I stopped to watch it shake
Em
I said, "Dance for me just one more time
D
Before you hibernate, and you come out a crab cake"
 
[Interlude]
 
D
 
[Verse 2]
 
D
And hey there, little snapping turtle, snapping at a shell
Em
Ah, there's mysteries inside, I know
D
But what they are I just can't tell for sure, ah
D
And hey ya, little baby crow, you're looking kinda mean
Em
I think I ought to split before you start letting off your steam
D
For sure, mmm, ah
 
[Interlude]
 
Em
 
[Verse 3]
 
E
And hey there, little sexy pig, you made it with a man
Em
And now you've got a little kid with hooves instead of hands
D Em
And oh, all of the animals
D
All the animals
 
[Verse 4]
 
D
And hey there, little Mockingbird, they sing about you in songs
Em
Ah, where you been? Have you broke a wing I haven't heard you in so long
D
And hey there, little Albatross, swimming in the air
Em
Ah c'mon, you know I can't fly and I, I think we really ought to play fair
D
And hey there, Mr. Happy Squid, you move so psychedelically
Em
You hypnotize with your magic dance all the animals in the sea
D
For sure And oh, all of the animals all the animals
 
[Verse 5]
 
D
And hey there, Mr. Morning Sun, what kind of creature are you?
Em
I can't stare, but I know you're there goddamn, how I wish I knew
D
And hey there, Mrs. Lovely Moon, you're lonely and you're blue
Em
It's kinda strange, the way you change
D
But then again, we all do too
