Testo Knocking 'round the Zoo - James Taylor

Knocking 'round the Zoo

Just knocking around the zoo on a Thursday afternoon,\nthere’s bars on all the windows and they’re counting up the spoons, yeah.\nAnd if I’m feeling edgy, there’s a chick who’s paid to be my slave, yeah,\nwatch out James.\nBut she’ll hit me with a needle if she thinks I’m trying to misbehave.\nNow the keeper’s trying to cool me/ says I’m bound to be all right,\nbut I know that he can’t fool me cause I’m putting him uptight, yeah.\nAnd I can feel him getting edgy every time I make a sudden move, whoa,\nyes it’s true.\nAnd I can hear them celebrating every time I up and leave the room.\nNow my friends all come to see me, they just point at me and stare.\nSaid, he’s just like the rest of us so what’s he doing there?\nThey hide in their movie theaters drinking juice, keeping tight,\nwatch that bright light.\nCause they’re certain about one thing, babe, that zoo’s no place to spend the\nnight, no.\nJust knocking around the zoo on a Thursday afternoon,\nthere’s bars on all the windows and they’re counting up the spoons, yeah.\nAnd if I’m feeling edgy, there’s a chick who’s paid to be my slave,\nwatch out Kootch.\nBut she’ll hit me with a needle if she thinks I’m trying to misbehave.
