ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS
(Traditional)

Oh, thunder and lightning is no lark
When Dublin city is in the dark
So if you've any money go up to the park
And view the zoological gardens

We went up there to see the oul' zoo
We saw the lion and the kangaroo
There was he-males and she-males of every hue
Up in the zoological gardens

We went out there by Castleknock
Says she to me, 'Sure we'll court on the lock
Then I knew she was one of the rare ould stock
From outside the zoological gardens'

We went up there on our honeymoon
Says she to me, 'If you don't come soon
I'll have to go in with the hairy baboon
Up in the zoological gardens'

Says she to me, 'It's seven o'clock
And it's time for me to be changing me frock
For I'd love to see the ould cockatoo
Up in the zoological gardens'

Says she to me, 'Me lovely Jack
Sure I'd love a ride on the elephant's back
If ye don't get out o' that I'll give you such a smack
Up in the zoological gardens'

0h, thunder and lightning is no lark
When Dublin city is in the dark
So if you've any money go up to the park
And view the zoological gardens
