| - Talk to the Animals (English Episode)
- "Talk to the Animals" was performed by Roger Moore in episode 524 of The Muppet Show. He was assisted in the song by Baskerville the Hound, Butch the Tiger, Quongo the Gorilla (who Roger called a Chimpanzee), a Skunk, Gnu, a Rabbit, some Otters, Squirrels, an Afghan Hound. Baskerville asks Roger Moore if he is also James Bond and tells him that some of the new animals on the set are actually spies in disguise. Roger ends up fighting numerous spies when they try to assassinate him during the song with appropriately changed lyrics for the situation. Roger comes out victorious and the animals rejoice.

Do you think you remember the song the doctor sang? Theodore: Ah, sure Dave, if you help me. Dave: Okay Theodore, I'll start it out for ya. If I could talk to the animals, just imagine it Chatting with the chimp in chimpanzee Imagine talking to a tiger, chatting with a cheetah What a neat achievement it would be Alvin: I would converse in polar bear and python I could converse in fluent kangaroo Alvin: I'd say "Whynotamous?" and would
