The moon's hanging low The stars above are twinkling too. For now, the world seems awfully quiet Lights are out Sound asleep It's Christmas Eve At The Zoo! I got goggles for the otters so they can see underwater I got shoes for the emus so they can run even farther I'm bringing all of my gifts to a place Santa always skips This year, we're doing Christmas at the zoo! I knitted a quilt for the cubs, it'll keep em' nice and snug I got nets for the marmosets to help em' catch a bunch of bugs I'm bringing all of my gifts to a place Santa always skips This year, we're doing Christmas at the zoo! I got scarves for giraffes. A hundred bird baths A book of jokes to make hyenas laugh Knock, knock who's there? Ah, don't you dare... I got a hot air balloon so that penguins can fly They can finally fly. Isn't Christmas divine? I'm bringing all of my gifts to a place Santa always skips This year, we're doing Christmas at the zoo!
