Feelin’ Groovy / At the Zoo
[Part I: Feelin' Groovy]
[Intro]
Ba da da da, bum bum bum, ba da da da
Ba da da da, ba ba da da da dum, ba da da da
La la bum, ba ya bum, ba da, da da da
Da da da, da da da, ba ba ya da da
Life, I love you, all is groovy
[Verse 1]
Slow down, you move too fast
You got to make the morning last
Just kickin' down the cobblestones
Lookin' for fun and feelin' groovy
Ba da da da, da da da da, ba da da da, feelin' groovy
[Verse 2]
Hello, lamppost, whatcha knowin'?
I've come to watch your flowers growin'
Ain'tcha got no rhymes for me?
A-doot-a-doo-doo-ee, feelin' groovy
[Part II: At the Zoo]
[Intro]
Someone told me it's all happening at the zoo
I do believe it
I do believe it's true
At the zoo (Lovers at)
At the zoo (I go there a lot)
Feelin' groovy at the zoo-vee
[Verse]
The monkeys stand for honesty
Giraffes are insincere
And the elephants arе kindly, but they're dumb
Orangutans are skеptical
Of changes in their cages
And the zookeeper is very fond of rum
[Outro]
The animal nation is on a vacation (Feelin' groovy)
It's such a good habit to make like a rabbit (Feelin' groovy)
Camels and llamas, hyenas and peacocks
And lions and tigers and bears, oh my
(I'm feelin' groovy) Oh my, I feel groovy
[Part III: Feelin' Groovy (Reprise)]
[Verse]
Got no deeds to do, no promises to keep
I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep
Let the morning time drop all its petals on me
Life, I love you
All is groovy (La da la da da da da)
All is groovy, oh ho ho (Sha la la la la la la)
[Outro]
Hippos and [?], piranhas and lizards
And parrots and zebras gon' have to believe us
'Cause they're all groovy, yeah
You give a gorilla a big floppy pillow
And feeling's groovy
You better not [?]
All is groovy
At the very least
Hug the wildebeest
And you'll feel groovy
