You’ve been with me to the zoo today,
Three-hundred species of penguin on parade,
We used to talk about whales who play sitars,
We used to talk about a bunch of tapirs in jars.

The formations of tropical birds are the things that really intrigue me,
It’s the caps and the car-signs that are the better souvenirs for you,
We used to hire a donkey each every time,
We used to laugh at snakes with missing spines.

It’s her camera and a picture is worth taking,
(It’s her camera)
It never struck her just to recharge it for one minute,
(It’s her camera)

The wildlife path just led to more monkeys,
You were on the safari tour with the door wide open.

It’s her camera and a picture is worth taking,
(It’s her camera)
It never struck her just to recharge it for one minute,
(It’s her camera)

When you lie on my bed and you tell me you don’t like lions,
Don’t you know how much that hurts?
You preferred jaguars and I didn’t know,
I got lost again in the play park.

She throws it out,
Camera shutter’s stuck,
She gets mad,
She goes to get one,
Entry ticket is overdue.

It’s her camera and a picture is worth taking,
(It’s her camera)
It never struck her just to recharge it for one minute,
(It’s her camera)
