Zookeeper`s Boy Lyrics

Zookeeper`s Boy lyrics

Are you my lady, are you?



If I don't make it back from the city

Then it is only because I am drawn away

For you see

Evidently
there's a dark storm come

And the chain on my swing is squeaking like a
mouse



So are you my lady, are you?

The rain, the rain, the
rain is falling down

The cars remain



You're tall just like a
giraffe

You have to climb to find its head

But if there's a
glitch

You're an ostrich

You've got your head in the sand



In a submersible I can hardly breathe

As it takes me inside, so
the light sings

Answer me truthfully

Do the clouds kiss you

With meringue-coloured hair

I know they cannot



So are you
my lady, are you?

The rain, the rain, the rain is falling down

The
cars remain



Santa Ana winds bring seasickness

Zookeeper hear
me out

How dare you go?

Cold in the rain



Tall just like
a giraffe

You have to climb to find its head

But if there's a
glitch

You're an ostrich

You've got your head in the sand



Are you my lady, are you?

The rain, the rain, the rain is
falling down

The cars remain

I could not be seen with you

Working half the time and looking fine

In cars re-made
