If life's a zoo, then we're the baboons
Acting like we own the cage we're locked into
Throwing our best guess against the walls and acting like it's true
Maybe we're the polar bears in the refrigerator
Swimming around so unaware
That things are getting warm out there

See you later, alligator, I just need a little time
In a while, crocodile, I just gotta get right
Adios, hippopotamus, probably ought to give it up
Let it go, water buffalo

'Cause I've been domesticated
And I hate the way I'm foaming at the mouth
Just to escape the cage I made myself
See you on the other side
Porcupine
Other side
Porcupine, woo

Maybe we're the trash rat, raccoon bandit
Living in the wild and barely getting by
But at least we're on the outside, looking in
Maybe we're alright
Maybe we're the penguins, buttoned up so tight
Living life like on slip and slide
When deep down we all know
Our little wings are just for show

See you later, alligator, I just need a little time
In a while, crocodile, I just gotta get right
Adios, hippopotamus, probably ought to give it up
Let it go, water buffalo

'Cause I've been domesticated
And I hate the way I'm foaming at the mouth
Just to escape the cage I made myself
See you on the other side
Porcupine
Other side
Porcupine, woo

Let it go, water buffalo
'Cause I've been domesticated
And I hate the way I'm foaming at the mouth
Just to escape the cage I made myself
I'll see you on the other side
Porcupine
Other side
Porcupine, woo
