Chorus:
Everybody does what they do best, the best
Everyone has something makes them different from the rest
Birds can fly and whales keep warm
But no one digs like the mighty worm
Everybody does what they do best, the best
Don't you know that rats can't rollerskate?
Geese can't dance ballet in Swan Lake
Whoever heard of a juggling duck
And why put a skunk in swimming trunks?
Chorus
Don't give a flute to a newt or a porcupine
Kangaroos jump and they do just fine
Don't ask a shrew to play charades
Or dress up a sheep in window shades
(1/2 chorus solo)
Birds can fly and whales keep warm, but no one digs like the mighty worm
Everybody does what they do best, the best
Don't play tag with a parrot and a cat
You'll sleep in the day if you sleep with a bat
Do what you do in your own style
That's what the animals do in the wild
Chorus
Everybody does what they do best, the best
Everybody does what they do best, the best
Everybody does what they do best, the best
