Little Fuzzy Animals
Frank Hayes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There are monsters back of every rock and up in every tree.
There are demon flies up in the skies and manticores beneath.
And, there's little fuzzy animals with *big sharp teeth!*
There are little fuzzy animals,
Little furry animals,
Little fuzzy animals with *big sharp teeth!*
Now, not all of the monsters there should fill you full of dread.
For the demon flies speak English and they love to scout ahead.
And the manticores will pull you through the muck and through the mud.
But, the little fuzzy animals will *drink your blood!*
Yes, the little fuzzy animals,
Little furry animals,
Little fuzzy animals will *drink your blood!*
When nightfall comes to Bailey's, with the darkness growing deep,
The music of the jungle night will lull you into sleep.
It's so restfull and so peaceful that you'll never feel the pain,
Of the little fuzzy telepaths that *eat your brain!*
Yes, the little fuzzy telepaths,
Little furry telepaths,
Little fuzzy telepaths that *eat your brain!*
So, when you go to Bailey's now, you'll know what lies in store.
There are hordes of friendly fiends and gentle monsters there galore.
But, with all the cute and furry ones, you know what you must do.
Get those little fuzzy buggers before *they get you!*
Get those little fuzzy buggers,
Get those little furry buggers,
Get those little fuzzy buggers before *they get you!*
The song "Little Fuzzy Animals" by Frank Hayes is a humorous and cautionary tale about the dangers of landing on Bailey's 7, a planet filled with monsters, demon flies, manticores, and little fuzzy animals with big sharp teeth. The lyrics create an almost whimsical and adventurous feel initially, but as the song progresses, it reveals a darker reality about the perils lurking on the planet.
The song seems to be a clever metaphor warning of the dangers of making impulsive decisions without proper research or knowledge. It also highlights the importance of being careful about who and what we trust in unfamiliar situations. The demon flies seem okay to rely on until it's revealed they will betray and attack you before the little fuzzy animals come for your blood and even your brain.
The use of the phrases "little fuzzy animals," "little furry animals," and "little fuzzy telepaths" throughout the song makes it clear that appearances can be deceiving, and every living being on Bailey's 7 is not necessarily friendly or helpful.

It's a shame YT doesn't have a version without the parody. The shift in song, while smooth, throws me off way too much.

This is exactly like it was on the tape. I don't think I've seen a recording of just just Little Fuzzy Animals...though I guess it would just take a little editing to make a pair of stand alones.
