Zoo Song Lyrics

Zoo Song lyrics





Well, once in a town by Kapokee Land

there was a path, a sea and a land

the neighbors weren't very nice though

they made is a mysterious place to go



the giraffes they didnt' know what to do they weren't very happy at the zoo

they stretched their long and slender necks

to try and get the leaves

they couldn't and the gorillas cried boo hoo

they didnt' dig life at the zoo

they could only eat and piss and poo

while the humans examined everything they'd do



they teased and laughed at the animals

made faces at the animals

but what the humans didn't know

they were confined in cages that didn't show

so the peopel came and went away

back to the ever daily day

with little to do and less to say

and their minds would wander

and their thoughts would stray



past the walls of Kapookee Land

castles of mud, rivers of sand

what they wouldn't understand

is they lived in a prison built by man

so man survived and life went on

stood on the verge of getting it on

never knowing all along

that somewhere something was all wrong



the walls that he sat behind

were vague and undefined

and so he'd never find

he was confined inside

our bars are invisible
