    C               G
Oh, eat your animal crackers
          F                 C
'Cause my mother told me so long ago
                        G
"If you eat your animal crackers
    F                        C
The children in Europe won't starve anymore"
F               C        F  G C
Ha ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha

    C                G
Oh, once I went on a diet
  F            C          G
A carbohydrate diet ain't nice
           C                G
'Cause you can't eat animal crackers
        F                      G         C
So, I'm gonna stay a fatty for all of my life
         F            G     C
Ah ha ha ha ha ha, ah ha ha ha
     F                      G           C          F  G C
But, some people think that fatties are nice, yeah


              G
I love eating ice cream
F                      C
Chocolate, vanilla and butter pecan
                       G
But I best love animal crackers
       F                 G      C
'Cause I love helping my fellow man
        F      G  C   F  G C

Did you ever hear of Alice's restaurant?
         F                  C          G
I eat at Alice's restaurant year after year
             C              G
She makes an animal cracker pizza, ha
              F                   G             C
And she gives animal crackers out free with the beer
    F                  G         C
Oh, let's give Alice a great big cheer
    F                           G          C
She knows the age of the animal cracker is here
    F                   G       C
Ah, animal crackers are in this year
         F    G C
Ah ha ha ha-a
