Harry Nilsson – Animal Farm Lyrics
HARRY NILSSON
Animal Farm Lyrics
The rooster calls his pals
It’s time to wake up
It’s time to shake-up
All you cows and fowls just remember
I’m your rooster
Doing what I’m supposed to do
It’s waking up the animal farm
A natural alarm
I’m the rooster
Doing what I’m used to
On the animal farm
The farmer calls his daughter
And goes looking for his wife
They’re gone to the city
To buy something pretty
Enjoy the city lights
But just remember
While the farmer’s working
Let’s say he’s out behind the plow
The fence needs fixing
The dishes need doing
Someone’s gotta do it
Or the farm will go to ruins
Say I’m your rooster
Doing what I’m supposed to do
It’s waking up the animal farm
A natural alarm
I’m a rooster
A natural-born booster
Of the animal farm
Oh-oh-oh
The farmer calls his rooster
The rooster’s missing too
He ain’t with the chickens
He ain’t with the cows
But what’s a man to do?
And while the farmer’s thinking
It flashes across his mind
Well if he’s not with the chicken
He’s not with the cows
His girls are missing too
Ooh-ooh-ooh
The farmer shakes his head
“Nah, this just could not be”
But a rooster’s a rooster
And a woman’s a woman
He’s just a rooster
Doing what the farmer used to
On the animal farm
Oh-whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh…
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh…
The animal farm
Life goes on and on and on and on
Animal farm
Oh, animal farm
