"Reindeer(s) Are Better Than People" is a song from Disney's 2013 animated feature film, Frozen, sung by Kristoff, who uses his voice to provide lines for his reindeer, Sven.

Summary

The song talks about how Kristoff distrusts people and prefers the company of reindeer, specifically Sven.

A continuation of the song is included in the 2019 sequel.[1] In this version of the song, Kristoff has a sort of fantasy in which Sven sings his own lines. The continuation immediately segues into the ballad "Lost in the Woods."

Lyrics

Kristoff:
Reindeers are better than people
Sven, don't you think that's true?

Kristoff (as Sven):
Yeah, people will beat you
And curse you and cheat you
Every one of them's bad except you

Kristoff:
Oh, thanks buddy
But people smell better than reindeers
Sven, don't you think I'm right?

Kristoff (as Sven):
That's once again true
For all except you

Kristoff: You got me, let's call it a night
Kristoff (as Sven): Goodnight
Kristoff: Don't let the frostbite bite.

Kristoff:
Reindeers are better than people
Sven, why is love so hard?

Sven:
You feel what you feel
And those feelings are real
Come on, Kristoff, let down your guard.
