"I'm Just Wild About Animal Crackers" by Sam Coslow, Harry Link and Fred Rich

Introduction:

[F]Ev'ry [D7]body [Gm]has some [C7]weakness,
And so have [F]I
Some[Fdim]thing I [C7]long for
I'm mighty [F]strong for
It's my [D7]only [Gm]dissa[C7]pation
I won't de[F]ny
[A#9]You [C]would [Dm7]nev[Ddim]er [C]guess
[Gdim]What [G7]brings me happi[C7]ness
[Caug] Oh!

Verse 1:

[F]I'm just wild a[Fdim]bout [C7]Animal Crackers, Animal Crackers
I can't live without [F]Animal Crackers, Animal Crackers
[D7]Bears and tigers [G7]haunt me all day,
And when [D7]ev[G7]er [C7]I am at a swell cafe, say!
[F]All I order [Fdim] is [C7]Animal Crackers, Animal Crackers
Fire crackers won't [Dm]do! [E7]
[D7]Good-ness gracious I'm no chump
I [G7]just bit off a camels' hump
[Gm7]Animal Crackers [Bbm6]I [C7]love [F]you!

Verse 2:

[F]I'm just wild a[Fdim]bout [C7]Animal Crackers, Animal Crackers
I can't live without [F]Animal Crackers, Animal Crackers
[D7]How I love to [G7] eat them in bed,
And I [D7]know [G7]that [C7]when my girl and I get wed, we'll
[F]Live on nothing [Fdim]but [C7]Animal Crackers, Animal Crackers
Oh how we'll bill and [Dm]chew! [E7]
[D7]Soda crackers are good stuff
But [G7]goodness they're not wild enough
[Gm7]Animal Crackers [Bbm6]I [C7]love [F]you!

Tag:

[D7]I could dine without a fuss
Up[G7]on a hipopotamus
[Gm7]Animal Crackers [Bbm6]I [C7]love [F]you!
