We Like the Zoo (’Cause We’re Animals Too)
[Chorus]
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We wanna do like the monkeys do
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
Put me in the pouch of a kangaroo

[Verse 1]
Now I'm not covered with fur and I don't stink
And I don't breathe underwater 'cause the good lord knows I'd sink
And you'd never guess from just what you see
But you gotta face it mama, there's a beast in me

[Chorus]
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
My mother and my brother and my cousins
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
Squawking all night like a cockatoo

[Verse 2]
Now I don't live in a tree, now and I can't fly
And I don't eat bugs but mama knows I try
When I see the big tiger and the chimpanzees
I recognise something that's inside of me

[Chorus]
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We wanna run like the rhinos too

[Bridge]
Well I'm an antelope (antelope)
And I'm a billy goat (billy goat)
And I'm a porcupine (porcupine)
And I'm a crocodile (crocodile)
And I'm a octopus (octopus)
And I'm a platypus (platypus)
And I'm a jaguar (jaguar)
And I'm a grizzly bear (grizzly bear)

[Chorus]
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We wanna do like the monkeys do
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too
We like the zoo 'cause we're animals too

[Outro]
Antelope, billy goat, porcupine, crocodile, octopus, platypus, jaguar, grizzly bear
Antelope, billy goat, porcupine, crocodile, octopus, platypus, jaguar, grizzly bear
