James Taylor - Knocking 'Round The Zoo [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Chorus]
Just knocking around the zoo
On a Thursday afternoon
There's bars on all the windows
And they're counting up the spoons, yeah
And if I'm feeling edgy
There's a chick who's paid to be my slave, yeah
Watch out James
But she'll hit me with a needle
If she thinks I'm trying to misbehave

[Verse]
Now the keeper's trying to cool me says
I'm bound to be all right
But I know that he can't fool me cause
I'm putting him uptight, yeah
And I can feel him getting edgy
Every time I make a sudden move, whoa, yes it's true
And I can hear them celebrating
Every time I up and leave the room
Now my friends all come to see me
They just point at me and stare
Said, he's just like the rest of us so what's he doing there?
They hide in their movie theaters drinking juice
Keeping tight, watch that bright light
Because they're certain about one thing, babe
That zoo's no place to spend the night, no

[Chorus]
Just knocking around the zoo
On a Thursday afternoon
There's bars on all the windows
And they're counting up the spoons, yeah
And if I'm feeling edgy
There's a chick who's paid to be my slave
Watch out Kootch
But she'll hit me with a needle
If she thinks I'm trying to misbehave
