LYRICS
We cordially invite you to the zoo
We invite you
To Sunday at the zoo
Come on and do what you wanna do
You know you want to
At the zoo

When you get there
Music fills the air
Are there vultures?
Yeah! For sure
Going to be zebras and a whole lot more
Not to mention Homo sapiens galore
Come on and do what you wanna do
At the zoo

I’m going to the zoo
Are you going, too
I’m going to the zoo
That’s what I really, really want to do
Come on and do what you wanna do
At the zoo

The Bald Eagle is looking regal
And you don’t want to miss
Reindeer at Christmas
Come on and do what you wanna do
At the zoo

Have you heard the herd
Seen the scene
There’s so much to touch
Come on and do what you wanna do
At the zoo

See ya later alligator!

LYRICS
Look in the rearview mirror
Hold on to life a lil’ dearer
It goes by so fast
Seein’ the future going passed

Look in the rearview mirror
And keep an eye on the road
Multi-task mode
Avoid brain overload

As the future comes clearer
The past comes nearer

Look in the rearview mirror
Hold on to life a lil’ dearer
It goes by so fast
Seein’ the future going past

As the future comes nearer
The past come clearer

LYRICS
Toss the baby into the air
Wondering if this life is fair
Ohhhh… I do believe I forgot my fudge
Order in the court. Here comes the Judge.

Toss a maybe our of despair
Is a response even there
Ohhhh… you won’t even budge
Order in the court. Here comes the Judge.

Toss a body into my car
Now you took it a lil’ too far
(siren sound)… bring on the badge
Order in the court. Here comes the Judge.

LYRICS
She spent the money
You know she spent the money

So, she could hire an esquire
To acquire what the children desire to aspire

She spent the money
You know she spent the money

Way less than being funny
More akin to a pitiful soul, Honey

She spent the money
You know she spent the money

Instead of getting baby new shoes
She went to the spa and got hairdos

She spent the money
You know she spent the money

When it was time for the kids to be fed
When it was time for the kids to be bed
When it was time for the kids further Ed.
She misled with all she did and said

Going on a fancy vacation
By robbing the kids’ fund for education
Riding in a fancy automobile
Acting like a real big deal
At the expense of your offspring?
Heaven only knows what that will bring
