Little Foxes

Little foxes on the hillside
Little foxes made of ticky-tacky
Little foxes on the hillside
Little foxes just the same
There's a red one and a blue one
And a pink one and a purple one
And they're all made out of ticky-tacky
But they're foxes just the same
There are wolves, too on the hillside
There are tigers and Dutch angel dragons
There are otters, cats, and huskies
But they all look much the same
There are tall ones there are short ones
There are feral and cartoonish ones
But they're all made out of ticky-tacky
And they all look much the same
There are fursuits in wild colours
Dressed in stylish Nazi uniforms
Or with questionable symbols
Sewn or painted in their fur
They'll have wings or deeley boppers
Anything to make their suits stand out
‘Cause they're all made out of ticky-tacky
And they all look much the same!
In Japan, they're making fursuits
With short muzzles and big Manga eyes
In Korea they're form-fitting
And the fur looks very sleek
Northern Europe or Australia
Every region has distinctive styles
But they're all made out of ticky-tacky
And they all look much the same
I remember we used makeup
To make humans look like animals
The effect, I thought, was pretty
No one does that anymore
So, how else could you make humans
Look like foxes, wolves, and crocodiles
If you couldn't sew up ticky-tacky
And just make them all the same?
