"I'm Proud To Be A Moose"

All The other animals laugh at me
They say what would you rather be
I patiently explain, I want to stay the same

I want to stay the same
I'm proud to be a moose
A moose is what I want to be
Take a look at me and you will see
I'm as happy as an animal can be

Rather be moose than a duck or gull
An eagle or a seagull or a pollywog
Though birds can fly but I don't mind
Nobody else has ears like mine

Im proud to be a moose
A moose is what I want to be
Take a look at me and you will see
I'm as happy as an animal can be

Never had a wish to be a fish
Tried to be a cow but I wouldn't know how
If u tried to make me a goose it would be no use as I'd rather be a moose

I'm proud to be a moose
A moose is what I want to be
You can look at me and you will see
I'm as happy as an animal can be
Never had a care to be a hare, a lion, tiger, penguin or a bear
Never had a whim to swim upstream like a salmon
Can't you see by now I'm happy as I am
And I am proud to be a moose
A moose is all I'll ever be
The reason for this is plain to see
I'm happy as an animal cab be

I'm proud to be a moose
I'm proud to be a moose
I'm proud to be a moose
