Well I know it can feel like a prison in a maze of Law and Taboo
Not the least of which dealing with matters of how one disposes of poo
But thinking ourselves above nature, we hide from our instinct denying it’s true
That this business called civilization in its essence no more amounts to:
Flinging poo at the zoo, flinging poo at the zoo
Express your point of view, flinging poo at the zoo
Try to prove it’s a lie, I’ll show you a guy
Who’s flinging poo at the zoo
Can you Imagine being a monkey hanging out with nothing to do
On display inside your cage with your keepers studying you?
Would you possibly savor to return the favor by flinging poo at the zoo?
Flinging poo at the zoo, flinging poo at the zoo
Express your point of view, flinging poo at the zoo
Try to prove it’s a lie, I’ll show you a guy
Who’s flinging poo at the zoo
Do you Imagine you are a human with a relatively high IQ?
If you’re so smart then tell me why don’t you do what you want to do?
If you’re so free, why are you charged a fee for flinging poo at the zoo?
Flinging poo at the zoo, flinging poo at the zoo
Express your point of view, flinging poo at the zoo
Try to prove it’s a lie, I’ll show you a guy
Who’s flinging poo at the zoo
The medicine man with a glove on his hand loves flinging poo at the zoo
Them soldier boys with the killer toys are flinging poo at the zoo
As the gal on the news gets her scoop on whose flinging poo at the zoo
Flinging poo at the zoo, flinging poo at the zoo
Express your point of view, flinging poo at the zoo
Try to prove it’s a lie, I’ll show you a guy
Who’s flinging poo at the zoo
Now you may say, “Ahem, Doctor Sparkles, we are people and not in a zoo
So we shouldn’t be likened to monkeys who sit around flinging their poo.” And you
May say, “It takes one to know one. You’re the one with the potty mouth singing of poo”
And to this I have no smart rebuttal, so I’ll just carry this metaphor through.
Flinging poo at the zoo, flinging poo at the zoo
Express my point of view, flinging poo at the zoo
Try to prove it’s a lie, I’ll show you a guy
Who’s flinging poo at the zoo
Pig squeeks the siren, Cock preaches the word, Ass calls for order, Cat growls “freebird”
Seal gives approval, Spider makes the kill, Squirrel buries the stash, Duck brings the bill,
Whatever your means or genetic leanings for flinging poo at the zoo
Wherever you’re jailed you can grow a tail for flinging poo at the zoo
However you find to speak your mind be flinging poo at the zoo
Mine your emission for ammunition for flinging poo at the zoo
Flinging poo at the zoo, flinging poo at the zoo
Express your point of view: Look out! That’s flying poo!
Now throw you a poo poo for you do that doo doo so well
