Zoo time is she and you time

The mammals are your favorite type and you want her tonight

Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat

You hear the thunder of stampeding rhinos, elephants and TACKY tigers



This town ain't big enough for the both of us

But it ain't me who's gonna leave



Flying, domestic flying

And when the stewardess is near, don't you show any fear

Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat

You are a khaki-colored bombardier,

it's Hiroshima that you're nearing



This town ain't big enough for the both of us

But it ain't me who's gonna leave



Daily, except for sunday

You dawdle into the cafe, where you meet her each day

Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat

As twenty cannibals have hold of you, they need their protein just like you do



This town ain't big enough for the both of us

But it ain't me who's gonna leave



Shower, another shower

You've got to look the best for her and be clean everywhere

Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat

The rain is pouring on the foreign town, the bullets cannot cut you down



This town ain't big enough for the both of us

But it ain't me who's gonna leave



Census, the latest census

There'll be more girls who live in town, though not enough to go around

Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat



You know that this town isn't big enough, not big enough

For the both of us

This town isn't big enough, not big enough for the both of us

And I ain't gonna leave
