Zoo time is she and you time
The mammals are your favorite type
And you want her tonightHeartbeat, increasing heartbeat
You hear the thunder of stampeding rhinos
Elephants and tacky tigersThis town ain't big enough for the both of us
And it ain't me that's gonna leaveFlying, domestic flying
And when the stewardess is near
Do not show any fearHeartbeat, increasing heartbeat
You are a khaki-colored bombardier
It's Hiroshima that you're nearingThis town ain't big enough for the both of us
And it ain't me that's gonna leaveDaily, except for Sunday
You dawdle in to the cafe
Where you meet her each dayHeartbeat, increasing heartbeat
As twenty cannibals have hold of you
They need their protein just like you doThis town ain't big enough for the both of us
And it ain't me that's gonna leaveShower, another shower
You've got to look your best for her
And be clean everywhereHeartbeat, increasing heartbeat
The rain is pouring on the foreign town
The bullets cannot cut you downThis town ain't big enough for the both of us
And it ain't me that's gonna leaveCensus, the latest census
There'll be more girls who live in town
Though not enough to go 'roundHeartbeat, increasing heartbeat
You know that this town isn't big enough
Not big enough for the both of usThis town isn't big enough
Not big enough for the both of us
And I ain't gonna leave
