[Chorus]
A7 D7
Just a-knockin' 'round the zoo
A7 D7
On a Thursday afternoon
A7 D7
There's bars on all the windows
A7 D7
And they're countin' up the spoons, babe
D7
And if I'm feelin' edgy
A7 D7 A7 D7
There's a chick who's paid to be my slave, yeah, oh watch out James
A E7
But she'll hit me with a needle
D7 A7 D7 A7 E7(+9)
If she thinks I'm tryin' to misbehave yeah
[Verse 1]
A7 D7
Now the keeper's tryin' to cool me
A7 D7
Says I'm bound to be all right
A7 D
But I know that he can't fool me
A7 D7
'Cause I'm puttin' him uptight, yeah
D7
And I can feel him gettin' edgy
A7 D7 A7
Every time I make a sudden move, whoa whoa, yes it's true
D7 E7(+9)
And I can hear them celebratin'
D7 A7 D7 A7 E7(+9)
Every time I up and leave the room
[Verse 2]
A7 D7
Now my friends all come to see me
A7 D7
They just point at me and stare
A7 D7
Said: "He's just like the rest of us
A7 D7
So what's he doin' there?"
D7
Now they hide in their movie theaters
A7 D7 A7
Drinkin' juice, keepin' tight, watch that bright light, bishop
D7 E7(+9)
Because they're certain 'bout one thing, babe
D7 A7 D7 A7 E7(+9)
That zoo's no place to spend the night, no
[Chorus]
A7 D7
Just a-knockin' 'round the zoo
A7 D7
On a Thursday afternoon
A7 D7
There's bars on all the windows
A7 D7
And they're countin' up the spoons, babe
D7
And if I'm feelin' edgy
A7 D7 A7 D7
There's a chick who's paid to be my slave, yeah, oh watch out Kootch
A E7
But she'll hit me with a needle
D7 A7 D7 A7 E7(+9)
If she thinks I'm tryin' to misbehave
