[Verse 1]
F Am
There were too many people at the party making faces
Em C
I don't wanna be a part of it with the beautiful people
F Am
And there you were drinking Coca-Cola, shaking your Polaroid picture
Em C
Don't try to explain it, I think that we feel the same here
F Am
And all the girls must be models here, sipping up on margaritas
Em C
Twist their bodies so beautiful, making shapes with the music
F Am
He got it all in a photograph and he marked it with Nikon
Em C
Named it "A Boy in the Zoo", kissed me deeply, here, that's for you

[Verse 2]
F Am
And there were too many people at the party in bikinis
Em C
They poured their Belvedere vodka into their small glass martinis
F Am
And there you were in the corner, smoking a cloud just for cover
Em C
His name engraved in his flask, so I don't have to ask (Oh-oh)
F Am
And all the girls must be dancers, they're getting up on the tables
Em C
Turning their bodies to liquid, so smooth in all the right places
F Am
He held a thumb with his fingers and blinked an eye for the trigger
Dm E
And said, "Girl in the zoo, I'm glad that's not you"
[Chorus]

But all I wanna know is what you think about me,
Em

You're my perfect kind of-
