Zoo

Hazel O'Connor What can I do? Up here in the zoo I've been here too much longer than I remember What can I say, will there be a day When we can all leave this place forever, forever, forever Wake up at 8, place you hate Ready by 9 for feeding time Spectators at 10 to look in your pen And we perform for them At the zoo, you, you what do you do At the zoo, you, you we perform for you At the zoo, you, you what do you care You just stand there and stare Animals cry at night, a tearful tiger is a terrible sight He remembers how he used to run free like me And we don't laugh anymore Sitting wondering what we ever laughed for Looking at the ever closed door What more, what more At the zoo, you, you what do you do At the zoo, you, you we perform for you At the zoo, you, you what do you care You just stand there and stare
