Lyrics
Verse 1
Go to a pet store
There are so many
I want them all
So I got a hamster
She’s cute and fluffy
Her name is Snowball
Chorus
I love the animals
Just like my family
I love, I love the animals
The Funky, Funky animals
I love the animals
From Detroit to Miami
I love, I love the animals
My Funky, Funky animals
Bridge
Take me to the zoo or an aquarium will do
Feed the tall Giraffes and watch them run, run, run
Let’s adapt a whale or watch a monkey chase his tail
Find a pony ride in the sun, sun, sun
Verse 2
Beasts of the fields
Birds of the Air
Fish of the sea
God made the creatures
I love their music
Even the bumble bee
Chorus
I love the animals
Just like my family
I love, I love the animals
The Funky, Funky animals
I love the animals
From Detroit to Miami
I love, I love the animals
My Funky, Funky animals
Bridge
Take me to the zoo or an aquarium will do
Feed the tall Giraffes and watch them run, run, run
Let’s adapt a whale or watch a monkey chase his tail
Find a pony ride in the sun, sun, sun
End Tag
Na, na’s…..
Funky, Funky, Funky, Funky, animals!

Backstory
Funky Animals | Story Behind Song
This is the story about how the song “Funky Animals” was born. My nephew (9 at the time) was visiting us from Michigan. I was showing him some of my latest music production tools. He fell in love with the scratch track I created, that is at the beginning of the song.
Then he said, “Oh Aunt Judith please write me a song like you did for mom (see “Ride“). I asked, “Well what do you want your song to be about?” He said, “How about animals!” Then I asked him some more questions such as, “Why do you like animals? What is it about them you want in a song?”
He rattled off some things like:
– I love my hamster Snowball.
– Going to the zoo, feeding the Giraffes, and watching them run.
– The monkeys, they’re funny, and sometimes they play with each other’s tails.
