This song has three versions of lyrics. While the PG-13 family version is quite popular, it seems that once people learn the lyrics to the adult version, that is the one many of them sing to each other on their way home.
Lyrics
I love chocolate, yes I do
I love chocolate, and I love you
I love chocolate, yes I do
I’ll share mine with you

Revision History
2024-10-01 – I edited the lyrics, chopping verses, and moving others. A major change was the deletion of a verse that described feeding chocolate to pets. When I originally wrote the lyrics, I did not know that chocolate was poisonous to many animals.
Chocolate is derived from roasted seeds of the Theobroma cacao tree. The primary toxic principles in chocolate are the methylxanthines theobromine (3,7-dimethylxanthine) and caffeine (1,3,7-trimethylxanthine). Theobromine is toxic for cats and dogs and many other animals.
For many dogs, the most common clinical signs are vomiting, diarrhea, increased thirst, panting or restlessness, excessive urination, and racing heart rate. In severe cases, symptoms can include cardiac arrhythmias, muscle tremors, and seizures.
Cats are unlikely to want to eat chocolate because they lack the ability to taste sweetness, unlike most other mammals, but you should still keep chocolate out of their reach because they are naturally curious.
