Dave:
This is the world of Doctor Dolittle
Alvin:
Hold it Dave! Doctor who?
Dave:
Doctor Dolittle Alvin. You remember, you saw the picture.
Alvin:
Dolittle? Boy, I thought he did an awful lot for a man named Dolittle.
Theodore:
Yeahhahahaha!
Dave:
Alright Alvin.
Alvin:
Okay, Okay!
The Chipmunks:
This is the world of Doctor Dolittle
Dave:
The wonderful world of Doctor Dolittle
Alvin:
Where crocodiles talk and elephants sing
And animals do most any old thing
Where polar bears wear top hats
The Chipmunks:
And leopards with spots wear spats
Dave:
Well, that's life in the world of Doctor Dolittle
The Chipmunks:
Doves start to coo when they see Dolittle
Dave:
He has a profound philosophy
The Chipmunks:
If animals can be friends, says he
The Chipmunks & Dave:
Well, then, why can't we?
Dave:
Say "How d'you do?" to Doctor Dolittle
The Chipmunks:
Say "How d'you do?" to Doctor Dolittle
Dave:
Life is a zoo to Doctor Dolittle
The Chipmunks:
Life is a zoo to Doctor Dolittle
Alvin:
Where antelopes lope and ostriches fan
Dave:
And kangaroos do what the kangaroos can
To make the hyenas laugh
Theodore:
Hahahaha!
Dave:
As long as a long giraffe
The Chipmunks:
Every calf starts to moo when they see Dolittle
Alvin:
Even the few who used to moo little
Dave:
For all of the birds and the beasts agree
The Chipmunks:
He has a profound philosophy
The Chipmunks & Dave:
And so, why can't we?
Dave:
Do little things to help them?
Alvin:
Like catch us and feed us.
Simon:
Help us with homework.
Give us a bigger allowance.
Dave:
Now wait a minute fellas. Hold it. Let's finish the song.
He has a profound philosophy
The Chipmunks:
If animals can be friends, said he
The Chipmunks & Dave:
Well, then, why can't we?
Dave:
Alvin.
Alvin:
Wee, weeee!
Dave:
Alvin!
Alvin:
Weeee, wee, WEEEEEEE!
Dave:
ALVIN!!!
The Chipmunks & Dave:
Why can't we!?!
