knocking 'round the zoo

just knocking around the zoo on a thursday afternoon

there's bars on all the windows and they're counting up the spoons

yeah. 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. now the keeper's trying to cool me/ says i'm bound to be all right

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

yes it's true. and i can hear them celebrating every time i up and leave the room. now my friends all come to see me

they just point at me and stare. said

he's just like the rest of us so what's he doing there?

they hide in their movie theaters drinking juice

keeping tight

watch that bright light. cause they're certain about one thing

babe

that zoo's no place to spend the night

no. just knocking around the zoo on a thursday afternoon

there's bars on all the windows and they're counting up the spoons

yeah. and if i'm feeling edgy

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

watch out kootch. but she'll hit me with a needle if she thinks i'm trying to misbehave.
