[Lyric] Columbus Zoo Blues (Eddie 9V)

I'm gonna tell you a story
I went up to Columbus, Ohio
Up to the zoo

And I maybe did a little drugs, ya know
A little green stuff, ya know
Nothing too serious

And I thought it would be fun, ya know
But it wasn't at all
It was the most depressing thing I've ever seen
Seeing all them animals in cages
Seeing cheetahs running around, with
Ya know, my damn bathroom is bigger than that
And I think that's worthy of singing some blues

I wouldn't say I'm an animal person
But this one goes to all the animals at the Columbus Zoo
It's called "The Columbus Zoo Blues"
So just imagine that I'm a hippo or something
I sit here, baby
Lord, in this lonesome cage
I sit here, baby
Lord, in this lonesome cage

All by myself
And you know, all I do is I sit here, watch all these people watchin' me

And it just builds up
I got so much rage
Don't you think, Chad?

I can't go further than these fences, baby
I can't go no further
I just have to sit here and wait

I can't go no further than this fence
Lord, I tell ya, I can't go further
I just gotta watch these people looking at me

I want somebody to take me out of this bottom
Take me out to this bottom, baby
I just wanna go free

All right, baby
Make it funky
I want to hear some harp
One day, I'm gonna bust out of this zoo
Lord, I'm gonna go far away from here
You know I ain't, I ain't a toy
You can't just toy me around

I'm gonna one day bust out of this zoo
Lord, and I tell ya, I'm gonna go back to where I'm from

I don't care how long it takes me
But I'm tired of feeling like a waste down here at the zoo

Alright, baby
Hambone, bring me up
