My baby cares for the animals
She loves everyone
She sheds a tear for the monkey
And the ants when they get trampled on

I like you the best
I like you the best
I like you the best

Yes I do
Yes I do

My baby cares for the zebras
She digs every stripe
Take me down to the zoo to see the babel
I don't know how to say what I've been thinking of

But I like you the best
I like you the best
I like you the best

Yes I do
Yes I do

If you love me
Don't eat me
If you want me
Be sweet
If you want me
Don't eat me

My baby sleeps in a lemon patch
She flies in a rocket ship
She can breathe underwater
She's a funny kid

I like you the best
I like you the best
I like you the best

If you love me
Don't eat me
If you want me
Be sweet
If you love me
Don't eat me

I like you the best
I like you the best
I like you the best

Yes I do
