I'd love to be an animal, just having fun all day
Oh yeah, I'd love to be an animal, just having fun all day
Nothin' to do but find some food, take naps and play
Chorus:
Then I could do the animal hop, on all fours
Doin’ the animal hop - livin' out of doors
The animal hop - with the dogs or the dinosaurs
If you're a snail or snake no one makes you do your chores
Some animals like running, and there are some who crawl
Oh yeah, some animals like running, and there are some who crawl
But I think I like ones that fly the best of all
Chorus
(dance)
So flap your wings (flap) and tap your toes (tap tap)
Slap your sides (slap) and wiggle your nose (wiggle wiggle)
Scratch your back (scratch) or wag your tail (wag wag)
Swim around and shake a scale (sha-a-a-a-a-a-ake!)
You'll never wanna stop
Doin' the animal hop - Hop! – The animal hop!
Some animals are furry, and some are covered in slime
Oh yeah, some animals are furry, and some are covered in slime
But even so, I know they have a real good time
Chorus
(repeat dance)
Hop, hop, the animal hop
(repeat 4x)
You'll never wanna stop
Doin' the animal hop - Hop, hop-ping, the animal hop! Yeah!
