[Verse 1]
C D
When Adam when out to name the animals
G7 C
He sat on a rock and he figured
D
Horse and cow and goat and a sheep
G7 C
Were the best names that he could deliver
A D
But Eve looked around at all of that glory
G7 C
Said, "Hon, I think we should consider
D
Something a bit more unique and refined
G7 C
For each and every critter"
[Chorus]
N.C. C A
It's a crash of rhinoceros, a pomp of Pekinese
Dm7 G
It's a gaggle of geese and a swarm of bees
Dm7 A
A parliament of owl and gam of whales
C
A pandemonium of parrot and a watch of nightingale
F C
A huddle of walrus, company of mole
D7 G7
Exultation of lark and a murder of crow
C D7
A simple flock of sheep and a herd of deer
G7 C G C
It's a bask of crocodiles, sleuth of bear
[Verse 2]
D
Adam looked shocked and he scratched his head
G7 C
Eve stood there happy and beaming
D
The animals gathered in close to their feet
G7 C
With roars of delight, barks and singing
A D
She's on a roll and just getting started
G7 C
The birds and beasts held their breath
D
What fine appellation would they receive
G7 C
And which one of them would be next?
[Chorus]
N.C. C A
It's a team of oxen and a rob of kangaroo
Dm7 G
It's a charm of finch if there are more than two
Dm7 A
A troubling of goldfish, cluster of cats
C
A bloat of hippopotami, a cloud of bats
F C
Ostentation of peacock, a barren of mule
D7 G7
An army of ant, nursery of raccoon
C D7
A parcel of penguin and a dray of squirrel
G7 C G C
A bed of oysters with or without the pearls
