The Zookeeper's Boy

Are you my lady, are you? Are you my lady, are you?

If I don’t make it back from the city Then it is only because I am drawn away For you see, evidently there’s a dark storm coming And the chain on my swing is squeaking like a mouse

So are you my lady, are you? So are you my lady, are you? The rain, the rain, the rain is falling down The cars remain

You’re tall just like a giraffe You have to climb to find its head But if there’s a glitch You’re an ostrich You’ve got your head in the sand

In a submersible I can hardly breathe As it takes me inside, so the light sings Answer me truthfully, do the clouds kiss you? With meringue-coloured hair, I know they cannot

So are you my lady, are you? So are you my lady, are you? The rain, the rain, the rain is falling down The cars remain

Santa Ana winds bring seasickness Zookeeper hear me out How dare you go? Cold in the rain

Tall just like a giraffe You have to climb to find its head But if there’s a glitch You’re an ostrich You’ve got your head in the sand

Are you my lady, are you? Are you my lady, are you? The rain, the rain, the rain is falling down The cars remain I could not be seen with you Working half the time and looking fine
