Disk: 1967 - She knows/
Talk to the animals (Atlantic 2433)
Disk 1967 - Talk to the animals/
After you've gone (Atlantic 2433)
If I could talk to the animals, just imagine it,
Chattin' with a chimp in chimpanzee,
Imagine talking to a tiger, chatting with a cheetah,
What a neat achievement it would be!
If we could talk to the animals, learn all their languages,
I could take an animal degree,
I'd study elephant and eagle, buffalo and beagle,
Alligator, guinea pig, and flea!
I would converse in polar bear and python,
And I would curse in fluent kangaroo,
If people ask me "can you speak rhinocerous?"
I'd say "of courserous! Can't you?"
If I conferred with our furry friends, man to animal,
Think of the amazing repartee
If I could walk with the animals, talk with the animals,
Grunt and squeak and squawk with the animals,
And they could talk to me!
If I consulted with quadrupeds
Think what fun we'd have asking over crocodiles for tea!
Or maybe lunch with two or three lions, walruses and sea lions
What a lovely place the world would be!
If I spoke slang to orangutans
The advantages why any fool on earth could plainly see!
Discussing Eastern art and dramas
With intellectual llamas
That's a big step forward you'll agree!
I'd learn to speak in antelope and turtle
And my Pekinese would be extremely good
If I were asked to sing in hippopotamus
I'd say "whynotamous?" and I would!
If I could parlay with pachyderms
It's a fairy tale worthy of Hans Anderson and Grimm
A man who walks with the animals and talks with the animals
Grunts and squeaks and squawks with the animals and they could talk to him!
Let me hear 'em talk
I'd study every creature's language
So I could speak to all of them on site
If friends said "can he talk in crab or maybe pelican?"
You'd say "I canny can" and you'd be right!
And if you just stop and think of it
Ain't no doubt of it
I'm gonna win a place in history
If I could walk with the animals
Talk with the animals
Grunt, squeak, squawk with the animals
And they could squeak and squawk and speak and talk to me!
Bobby Darin, all'anagrafe Walden Robert Cassotto, è stato un cantante e attore statunitense di origini italo-americane. Nato a New York nel 1936, Darin ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni cinquanta, raggiungendo il successo con brani come "Splish Splash" e "Mack the Knife".

Darin ha vinto un Grammy Award nel 1960 per la sua interpretazione di "Beyond the Sea", che è diventata uno dei suoi brani più iconici. Oltre alla musica, Darin ha recitato in diversi film, tra cui "Come September" (1955) e "That Funny Feeling" (1965). È stato sposato con l'attrice Sandra Dee dal 1960 al 1967, dalla quale ebbe un figlio. Darin è morto nel 1973 a causa di una malattia cardiaca all'età di 37 anni.
