E7
Just a-knockin� around that zoo, on a Thursday afternoon
There�s bars on all the windows, and they�re countin� up the spoons, babe
A7
And if I�m feelin� edgy
E7
There�s a chick who�s paid to be my slave, yeah, watch out James
B7(#9) A7 E7 (B7#9)
But she�ll hit me with a needle if she thinks I�m tryin to misbehave, yeah
Now the keeper�s tryin� to cool me, says I�m bound to be alright
But I know that he can�t fool me, cause I�m puttin� him up tight, yeah
And I can feel him gettin� edgy
Every time I make a sudden move, oh whoa, yes it�s true
And I can hear him celebratin� every time I up and leave the room

Now my friends all come to see me, they point at me and stare
Say he�s just like the rest of us, so what�s he doin� there?
Now they hide in their movies, girl
Pick and choose, sleep in tight, what�s the bright light shinnin�
And I�m certain bout one thing, babe that zoo�s no place to spend the night, no
Just a-knockin� around that zoo, on a Thursday afternoon
There�s bars on all the windows, and they�re countin� up the spoons, babe
And if I�m feelin� 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 tryin to misbehave, yeah
End on B7(#9)
