Someone told me it's all happening [A] at the zoo
[D] I do believe it, [G] I do [Em] believe it's true
[G] Mmm, [Em] mmm, [G] whoa, [Em] mmm
[G] It's a light and [Em] tumble journey from [G] the east side [Em] to the park
[G] Just a fine and [Em] fancy ramble [D] to the zoo
But you [Em] can take the cross town [G] bus if it's raining or [Em] it's cold
And [G] the animals [Em] will love it if [A] you do
If you [Em] do now
Something [A]
[Em]
[A] tells me it's all happening [A] at the zoo
I [D]
do believe it, [G] I do [Em] believe it's true
[G] Mmm, [Em] mmm, whoa, mmm
The [G] monkeys stand [Em] for honesty, [G] giraffes [Em] are insincere
And [G] the elephants [Em] are kind, but [D] they're dumb
[G] [Em] Orangutans are skeptical [G] of changes [Em] in their cages
[G] And the zookeeper [Em] is very [G] fond of rum
[Em] [G] Zebras [Em] are [G] reactionaries, [Em] antelopes are missionaries
[G] Pigeons [Em] flock in [G] secrecy, and hamsters turn out vigorously
What the?
[Em] Yes, you're right, come and see at the [G] zoo
At the zoo, at the zoo, at the zoo, at the zoo
[Em]
