No begging for mercy to a Mercedes Been to hell n danced in Hades Came right back through the wall in a delivery room In a dark old street in Glasgow, With a chip shop and a Haddows God Pointed out the route and said I'll see you soon The danger gone after the first time that I saw you I was waiting by the pond in the city Zoo But alas you couldn't find me though I waited oh so kindly I know you'll find me someday when I find you Now I'm back just over thirty With some water if you're thirsty Don't follow what don't make you happy friend If you're sick and tired of working Sick of laughing talking loving Join the road with me and I'll get you to the end The danger gone after the first time that I saw you I was waiting by the pond in the city Zoo But alas you couldn't find me though I waited oh so kindly I know you'll find me someday when I find you Of this game of 2 potatoes That I need to play to save all Of myself in this valley full of dolls I don't worry not at all So when you hear ma old drawl Won't you join me love and we'll go have a ball The danger gone after the first time that I saw you I was waiting by the pond in the city Zoo But alas you couldn't find me though I waited oh so kindly I know you'll find me someday when I find you I take the wind Precious as a sunray, pretty like a diamond ring You're a star in the moonlit sky, a cloud so high n flying by You help me get to the light When I find you, you'll find me Of suns overlooking a new world This is mine not lost or hurt But love like a free flying bird And take me with you soon my love Teach me to be true Aww in the City Zoo Teach me to be true – in the City Zoo In the Zoo, in the city, in the city, in the city, in the city zoo
