Tom Petty - Zombie Zoo lyrics

[Tom Petty - Zombie Zoo lyrics]

All down the street, they're standing in line
With white lipstick and one
Thing on their minds
Hey little freak with the lunch pail purse
Underneath the paint
You're just a little girl

Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all you wanna do
Is dance down at the Zombie Zoo

Cute little dropout, how come you pack a rod?
Is your mother in a clinic? Has
Your father got no job?
Sometimes you're so impulsive
You shaved off all your hair
You look like Boris Karloff and
You don't even care

You're dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all you wanna do
Is dance down at the Zombie Zoo

She disappears at sunrise
I wonder where she goes until the night
Comes fallin' down again
You show up with your friends, half-alive

Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo

Well, you can make a big impression
Or go through life unseen
You might wind up restricted
And over seventeen
It's so hard to be careful, so easy to be led
Somewhere beyond the pavement
You'll find the living dead

Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all she wants to do
Is dance down at the Zombie Zoo

She disappears at sunrise
I wonder where she goes until the night
Comes fallin' down again
You show up with your friends, half-alive

Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all she wants to do
Is dance down at the Zombie Zoo
Dance down at the Zombie Zoo
Get down at the Zombie Zoo
