Knocking 'Round the Zoo

Just knocking around he zoo

On a Thursday afternoon

There's bars on all the windows

And they're counting up the spoon, babe

And if I'm feeling edgy

There's a chick who's paid to be my slave

Yeah, watch out James

But she'll hit me with a needle

If she thinks I'm trying to misbehave-yeah

Now the keeper's trying to cool me

Says I'm bound to be alright

But I know that he can't fool me

'Cause I'm putting him uptight, yeah

And I can feel him getting edgy

Every time I make a sudden move

Whoa, whoa, yes it's true

And I can hear them celebrating

Every time I up and leave the room

Said, my friends all came to see me

They point at me and stare

Said he's just like the rest of us

So what's he doing there

Now, they hide in their movie theaters

Drinking juice, keeping tight

What's that bright light bishop

'Cause they're certain about one thing , babe

That zoo's no place to spend the night, no, no

Just knocking around the zoo

On a Thursday afternoon

Said, there's bars on all the windows

And they're counting up the spoons, babe

And if I'm feeling edgy

There's a chick who's paid to be my slave

Yeah, watch out Kootch

But she'll hit me with a needle if she thinks

I'm trying to misbehave, yeah
