Down At The Zoo - Ted Gärdestad

Life is simple, Down at the Zoo

Love is easy, Down there with you

We can ride on top of an elephant

And the world outside is irrelevant

Deep inside of our hearts we are animals too

D-d-d-Down at the Zoo

D-down, down at the Zoo

D-down, down there with you

Skies are sunny, Down at the Zoo

Life is funny, Down there with you

Little children beg for a new balloon

When the old one flies like a desert moon

From the animals veiw we’re just animals too

D-d-d-down at the Zoo

Buy a ticket for the monkeyshow

Everybody want’s to say hello

Can you tell me Mister where the lovers go

Where are the peanuts?

And where is my money?

Ice-cream, tutti-frutti ice-cream!

Smile for the cameral!

Eyes are shining, Down at the Zoo

Life is smiling, Down there with you

So you work all week for the company

And your eyes get red in the factory

What the animals know, all the animals do

I Said: Down at the Zoo

D-down, down at the Zoo

D-down, down at the Zoo

Skies are sunny, Down at the Zoo

Life is funny, Down there with you

Yeah
