Someone told me it's all happening at the zoo
I do believe it, I do believe it's true
It's a light and tumbled journey
From the East Side to the Park
Just a fine and fancy ramble to the zoo
Well you can take the crosstown bus
If it's raining or it's cold
And the animals will love it if you do
If you do now
Someone telss me it's all happening at the zoo ...
The monkeys stand for honesty
Giraffes are insincere
And the elephants are kindly, but they're dum
Orangutangs are skeptical of changes in their cages
And the zookeeper is very fond of rum
Zebras are reactionaries
Antilopes are missionaries
Pidgeons plot in secrecy
And hamsters turn on frequently
What a gas!
So you gotta come and see at the Zoo
At the Zoo ...
