The Zookeeper’s Boy Lyrics

[Intro]
Are you my lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
Are you my lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
Are you my lady, are you?

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
So are you my lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
Are you my lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
(The rain, the rain, the rain is falling down, the cars remain)

[Refrain]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
So, are you my lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
(The rain is falling down, the cars remain)
My lady, are you?
(The rain is falling down, the cars remain)
(I could not be seen with you)

[Bridge]
Santa Ana winds bring seasickness (Oh, there you are)
Zookeeper hear me out (Oh, there you are)
How dare you go? Cold in the rain (Oh, there you are)

[Refrain]
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

[Chorus]
Are you my lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
Are you?
My lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
(The rain is falling down, the cars remain)
My lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
(The rain is falling down, the cars remain)
(I could not be seen with you)
My lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
(The rain is falling down, the cars remain)
(I could not be seen with you)
My lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
(Working half the time and looking fine, in cars re-made)
My lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
(Working half the time and looking fine, in cars re-made)
(I could not be seen with you)
My lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
(Working half the time and looking fine, in cars re-made)
(I could not be seen with you)
My lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
(Working half the time and looking fine, in cars re-made)
(I could not be seen with you)
My lady, are you?
My lady, are you?
(Working half the time and looking fine, in cars re-made)
(I could not be seen with you)
