Zoo time is she
and your time
The mammals
are your favourite 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
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
bombardier it's
Hiroshima
that you're nearing
This town ain't big
enough for the both of us
And 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 both of 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 round
Heartbeat
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
