[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                 D  7 A7
Every time I make a sudden move, whoa whoa, yes it's true
D7             E7(+9)
And I can hear them celebratin'
D7        A        7 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
D         7 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

There's a chick who's paid to be my slave, yeah, oh watch out Kootch

But she'll hit me with a needle
D7 A7 D7 A7 E7(+9)
If she thinks I'm tryin' to misbehave
