You can scratch the antique furniture
To sharpen up your claws
You can lacerate the cushions
If you're ever stuck indoors

You can dig up all the flowers
From the freshly planted beds
And with articles of clothing
It's okay to pull some threads

But I remember as a kindergarten kitten
One phrase that left me singularly smitten

You can play with your food before you eat it
You can chivvy your chow before you chew
You can play with your food you can't beat it
So, Ducky, let me play with you

You can play with your food before you bite it
You can toy with your tuck before the crunch
You can play with your food; why fight it?
It's a crazy little game called lunch

(spoken)
So tell me, Ducky, what would you like to play?
It can be anything. I won't tell your mother
[UGLY]
(spoken)
Anything? Well...
(sung)
I'd like to paddle in the puddles
Dabble in the mud
Tickle sticklebacks in the shallows!
Then maybe if there's time
Go sliding in the slime
To the marsh where you find marshmallows!

I'll go and slay a dragonfly!
Watch water boatman race!
To say that cats are dangerous
Is clearly not the case

[CAT]
I'd rather play a game that's sharp and witty
And preferably with something in the kitty

You can play with your food before you nibble
You can gist with your joint before you slice
You can play with your food, but don't dribble
My mama gave the best advice!

You can play with your food before you gulp it
You can mess with your meal before you munch
You can play with your food, then pulp it
It's a crazy little game called lunch!
[UGLY]
We could go
Rushing in the rushes
Dashing in a ditch
Find the kind of place where it's foggy
Then, make the kind of camp
That is secretive and damp
For me and my mate, the moggy!

And if the other ducklings
Want to come and join our games
They have to make a promise first
To stop calling me names

[CAT]
Oh, I'll help you to forget the way they scolded
Just as soon as I have got my napkin folded

(spoken)
Oh, you want to play hide-and-seek do you?
Where are you? Am I getting warmer?

(sung)
You can play with your food before you eat it
You can chivvy your chow before you chew
You can play with your food you can't beat it
So ducky, ducky, ducky, ducky, ducky, ducky, ducky, ducky
Ducky, let me play with you!
You can play with your food before you bite it
You can toy with your tuck before the crunch
You can play with your food; why fight it?
It's a crazy little game-

(spoken)
Tell me, do you like oranges?

[UGLY]
(spoken)
I don't know, I’ve never tried one

[CAT]
(spoken0
Well, suck on this!

(sung)
It's a crazy little game called lunch!
