Dr. Dolittle lyrics

This is the world of Doctor Dolittle...

This is the world of Doctor Dolittle.
The wonderful world of Doctor Dolittle
Where crocodiles talk,
And elephants sing
And animals do most any old thing.
Where polar bears wear top hats,
And leopards with spots wear spats.

Well, that's life in the world of Doctor Dolittle.
Doves start to coo when they see Dolittle.
He has a profound philosophy,
If animals can be friends, says he,
Well, then, why can't we?
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/a/alvin_and_the_chipmunks/dr_dolittle.html ]
Say "How d'you do?" to Doctor Dolittle.
Life is a zoo to Doctor Dolittle.
Where antelopes lope,
And ostriches fly,
And kangaroos do what kangaroos can
To make the hyenas laugh
As long as a long giraffe.

Every calf starts to moo when they see Dolittle,
Even the few who used to moo little.
For all of the birds and beasts agree,
He has a profound philosophy.
And so, why can't we
Do little things to help them?

He has a profound philosophy,
If animals can be friends, says he,
Well, then, why can't we?
Alvin! Alvin! ALVIN!
Why can't we!
