This is the first time I've ever tabbed something out 
It may not be completely accurate, but I gladly welcome editors 
I searched all over for this song but no one had it! 
I hope you enjoy this rendition :) 

Lyrics: 

I'm mad and that's a fact 
I found out animals don't help 
Animals think they're pretty smart 
Shit on the ground, see in the dark 

They wander around like a crazy dog 
Make a mistake in the parking lot 
Always bumping into things 
Always let you down, down, down, down 
Eh, eh, eh, eh 

Animals think they understand 
Most of them are a big mistake 
Animals want to change my life 
I will ignore, I don't know such place 

They're never there when you need them 
They're never there when you call them 
They're never there when you need them 
They're never there when you call them down 
Down, down, down 

I know the animals are laughing at us 
Don't even know what a joke is 
I won't follow animal's advice 
I don't care if they're laughing at us 

They're never there when you need them 
They're never there when you call them 
They're never there when you need them 
They're never there when you call them down 
Down, down 
Eh, eh, eh 

They say they don't need money 
They're living on nuts and berries 
They say animals don't worry 
They're living on nuts and berries 

You know animals are hairy? 
They say animals don't worry 
They think they know what's best 
They're making a fool of us 

They ought to be more careful 
They're setting a bad example 
They say animals don't worry 
They're living on nuts and berries 

They're setting a bad example 
They ought to be more careful 
You know animals are hairy? 
They're living on nuts and berries 

They want to know what's best 
They're making a fool of us 
They ought to be more careful 
They're setting a bad example 

They like to laugh at people 
They're setting a bad example 
They have untroubled lives 
They think every thing's nice 

They say they don't need money 
They say animals don't worry 
They're living on nuts and berries 
You know animals are hairy? 

They think they know what's best 
They're making a fool of us 
They like to laugh at people 
They're making a bad example 

They say they don't need money 
You know animals are hairy? 
They're living on nuts and berries 
They say they don't need money 
They're setting a bad example
