The Zoo
Welcome to our zoo
The best in town
It will be a pleasure
Showing you around
Look at the lions
But make no sound
So beautiful, so tame
But they will get you down
Look at the monkeys
They laugh and they eat
Think you drink a lot?
They will have you beat
Look at the seals
Waiting for their treat
They'll come crying to you
Once their clothes don't fit
Look at the ducks
Courage they don't lack
To protect their families
They won't hesitate to attack
Too soon the visit's over
Pick your poison, have a snack
We're all animals in this zoo
And we know you will come back
