Zoo time is she and you time

The mammals are your favourire 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 both of us

And it ain't me who's gonna leave

Flying domestic flying

And when the stewardess is near do not show any fear

Heartbeat increasing heartbeat

You are a khaki-coloured bombadier it's Hiroshima that you're nearing

This town ain't big enough for both uf us

And it ain't me who's gonna leave

Daily, exept for Sunday

You dawdle in to the cafe where you meet her each day

Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat

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

This town ain't big enough for both uf us

And it ain't me who's gonna leave

Shower, another shower

You've got to look your 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 both of us

And 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 ground

Hearbeat, increasing heartbeat

You know that :

This town isn't big enough,

not big enough for both of us

This town isn't big enough,

not big enough for both of us

And I ain't gonna leave

(written by Ron Mael - Sparks - in 1974)
