A letra:

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 tumble journey
From the East Side to the park
Just a fine and fancy ramble
To the zoo

But 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

Somethin' tells me it's all happening at the zoo

I do believe it, I do believe it's true

The monkeys stand for honesty
Giraffes are insincere
And the elephants are kindly but they're dumb

Orangutans are skeptical
Of changes in their cages
And the zookeeper is very fond of rum

Zebras are reactionaries
Antelopes are missionaries
Pigeons plot in secrecy
And hamsters turn on frequently
What a gas, you gotta come and see

At the zoo, At the zoo, At the zoo
At the zoo, At the zoo, At the zoo
At the zoo, At the zoo
