The Zoo Blues Lyrics - Singles - Manhattan Transfer

I'll turn you on 

I'll turn you on 

To turn you on 

To turn you on 

Tell me, what, what's the trip? 

To turn you on quick 

Tell me, what, what's the trip? 

To turn you on with 

Tell me, what, what's the trip? 

To turn you on quick 

I'm a rational fella 

But I think I've gone nuts 

Just wanna be, wanna be 

Left alone and unwound 

Now the video sellers 

With their ifs, ands or buts 

They follow me, how do we 

Turn this travesty down? 

It's as fast as a rocket ship 

Strange as a zoo 

See the common man dare 

If you care to 

(Dare for the man if you care to) 

Come on down to your local store now 

Can't you hear the voices? 

Buy one, buy two more fun for you 

A hundred and one choices 

Kooky abstract dada 

Like they sell at Alpha Beta 

I wish I had a set of 

Orangutan babies 

A barkin' the blues 

The quack quack wa-wa 

Of the latter salad days are 

Media, media 

There's some that say TV 

Invented the blues 

Kooky abstract dada 

Like they sell at Alpha Beta 

I wish I had a set of 

Orangutan babies 

A barkin' the blues 

It's political power 

And the jungle book rules 

They wanna be, gotta be 

Messin' 'round with my calm 

In the critical hour 

It's the junk or the jewels 

They're fakin' it, makin' it 

Seem so utterly cool 

It's as fast as a rocket ship 

Strange as a zoo 

See the common man dare 

If you care to 

(Dare for the man if you care to) 

Come on down to your local store now 

Can't you hear the voices 

Buy one, buy two more fun for you 

A hundred and one choices just for you 

Kooky abstract dada 

Like they sell at Alpha Beta 

I wish I had a set of 

Orangutan babies 

A barkin' the blues 

The quack quack wa-wa 

Of the latter salad days are 

Media, media 

There's some that say TV 

Invented the blues 

Kooky abstract dada 

Like they sell at Alpha Beta 

I wish, I had a set of 

Orangutan babies 

A barkin' the blues 

The quack quack wa-wa 

Of the latter salad days are 

Media, media 

There's some that say TV 

Invented the blues 

Kooky abstract dada 

Like they sell at Alpha Beta 

I wish I had a set of 

Orangutan babies 

A barkin' the blues 

The quack quack wa-wa 

Of the latter salad days are 

Media, media 

There's some that say TV 

Invented the blues 

Kooky abstract dada 

Like they sell at Alpha Beta 

I wish I had a set of 

Orangutan babies 

A barkin' the blues 

The quack quack wa-wa 

Of the latter salad days are 

Media, media 

There's some that say TV
