EMILY'S ANIMALS

I have a little pet, my pet's name is Ida
I love my litte pet, she's a black widow spider
I threw her on my sister, and she made a horrible roar
And I wonder why nobody comes to visit any more

No family for friends come around our little door
And I wonder why nobody comes to visit any more

I have a little pet, my pet's name is Jake
I love my little pet, he's a boa constrictor snake
He ate my sister's hamster while he ran across the floor
And I wonder why nobody comes to visit any more

CHORUS

BREAK

I have a little pet, my pet's name is Bruce
I love my little pet, he's a big Alaskan moose
His antlers touch the ceiling while his feet are on the floor
And I wonder why nobody comes to visit any more

CHORUS

I have a litle pet, my pet's name is Ryan
I love my little pet, he's a big ferocious lion
He sleeps with me at night, he is a cuddly carnivore
And I wonder why nobody comes to visit any more

CHORUS

BREAK

I have a little pet, my pet's name is Pat
I love my little pet, she's a stinky sewer rat
She used to have bubonic plague, but doesn't any more
And I wonder why nobody comes to visit any more
CHORUS

I have a little pet, my pet's name is Boris
I love my little pet, he a big tyrannosaurus
To watch him stomp the poseys is the thing that I adore
And I wonder why nobody comes to visit any more

CHORUS


I have a little pet, I'll show him to you later
I love my little pet, he's a slimy alligator
He sleeps beneath my bed and so I'm careful not to snore
And I wonder why nobody comes to visit any more

CHORUS

I have a little pet, I keep it in a dish
I love my little pet, he's a yummy jellyfish
I think it tastes much better than the jelly from the store
And I wonder why nobody comes to visit any more

CHORUS
