[Verse 1]
When CAdam when out to Dname the animals He G7sat on a rock and he Cfigured Horse and cow and Dgoat and a sheep Were the G7best names that he could deCliver But EAve looked around at Dall of that glory Said, "G7Hon, I think we should conCsider Something a bit more uDnique and refined For G7each and every Ccritter"
[Chorus]
N.C.It's a Ccrash of rhinoceros, a Apomp of Pekinese It's a Dm7gaggle of geese and a Gswarm of bees A Dm7parliament of owl and Agam of whales A pandeCmonium of parrot and a watch of nightingale A Fhuddle of walrus, Ccompany of mole ExulD7tation of lark and a G7murder of crow A Csimple flock of sheep and a D7herd of deer It's a G7bask of crocodiles, Csleuth Gof Cbear
[Verse 2]
Adam looked shocked and he Dscratched his head G7Eve stood there happy and Cbeaming The animals gathered in Dclose to their feet With G7roars of delight, barks and Csinging She'sA on a roll and Djust getting started The G7birds and beasts held their Cbreath What fine appellation Dwould they receive And G7which one of them would be Cnext?
[Chorus]
N.C.It's a Cteam of oxen and a Arob of kangaroo It's a Dm7charm of finch if there are Gmore than two A Dm7troubling of goldfish, Acluster of cats A Cbloat of hippopotami, a cloud of bats OstenFtation of peacock, a Cbarren of mule An D7army of ant, nurseG7ry of raccoon A Cparcel of penguin and a D7dray of squirrel A G7bed of oysters with or CwithGout the Cpearls
[Verse 3]
All of that naming lasted Dinto the night G7Even the insects had Cgroupings Eve was still bright eyed and Dwilling to finish Though G7shoulders and fig leaf were Cdrooping AAdam said, “Darling, I'm Dproud and amazed You're G7really one heck of a Cwoman So, lets go to sleep and toDmorrow we'll rise And G7start naming rocks, plants and Cwoodlands”
[Chorus]
N.C.It's a Ctittering of magpie, Acompany of mole Its a Dm7pride of lions and a Gtribe of goats A Dm7plague of locust and a Apack of dogs A Cleap of leopard an array of hedgehog It's a Fcaravan of camels, a Cdrift of swan A D7sulk of foxes and the G7list goes on It's a Cprickle of porcupine, a D7battery of hens A G7cohort of zebra and now, Conce GagCain
[Chorus]
It's a colony of rabbit and a Asounder of boar An Dm7ambush of tigers, now Gjust a little more It's a Dm7business of ferrets, a Aswarm of eels A Ccovey of quail and a pod of seals It's a paFrade of elephant, a Cdole of dove A D7bale of turtles and G7all of them are loved N.C.And she Ckissed the horde of hamsters on their D7furry little heads G7Sighed with satisfaction and she Cwent Gto Cbed
