Текст песни The Zoo (The Human Zoo) - Commodores

Zoo
The human zoo
We're free

As a caged chimpanzee
Right
Or really wrong
Disguised in life
As human right?

And they call this a civilization
We're treated like animals outside our cages
If people see that you're tryin'
They tear you up like hungry lion

Inside the zoo, zoo
The human zoo, zoo
What can I do?
It's gonna prove

Just give your friend a break
He'll bite the hand that feeds him like a rattlesnake
And don't shut your eyes and try to sleep
Otherwise, another dog will steal your meat

Inside the zoo
The human zoo
What can I do?
It's gonna prove

Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya
Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya
Ya-ya-ya-ya

Zoo
The human zoo
We're free
As a caged chimpanzee
I don't like to get down on their level
I bet it's your turn, I know it's terrible
It's true

The human zoo, now
Not like they do, no
I will prove
For me and you, girl
That inside of you
I love you too
I want you to

In this human zoo, Lord, I'm comin'
Uh-huh, in this human zoo
I'm gonna do this for me and you
Oh, I want you too
