Alligator pie, alligator pie,

Give away the green grass, give away the sky,
But don’t give away my alligator pie.

If I don’t get some I don’t know what I’ll do.
Give away my furry hat, give away my shoe,

Give away my hockey stick, give away my hoop,
But don’t give away my alligator soup.

The apples are seasoned and ripe and sound.
Gently they fall on the yellow ground.
The apples are stored in the dusky bin,
Where hardly a glimmer of light creeps in.
In the firelit, winter nights, they'll be,
The clear sweet taste of a summer tree.

Read poem "Animal Crackers" by Christopher Morley

Animal crackers and cocoa to drink,
That is the finest of suppers, I think;
When I'm grown up and can have what I please
I think I shall always insist upon these.

What do you choose when you're offered a treat?
When Mother says, "What would you like best to eat?"
Is it waffles and syrup, or cinnamon toast?
It's cocoa and animals that I love the most!

The kitchen's the coziest place that I know:
The kettle is singing, the stove is aglow,
And there in the twilight, how jolly to see
The cocoa and animals waiting for me.

Daddy and Mother dine later in state,
With Mary to cook for them, Susan to wait;
But they don't have nearly as much fun as I
Who eat in the kitchen with Nurse standing by;
And Daddy once said he would like to be me
Having cocoa and animals once more for tea!
