James Taylor - Knocking 'Round The Zoo Lyrics
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.
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.
Cause they're certain about one thing, babe, that zoo's no place to spend the night, no.
Just knocking around the zoo on a Thursday afternoon,
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.

James Taylor Knocking 'Round The Zoo Comments
I attended Milton Academy, too. And I attempted suicide. A bystander prevented completion. She cared about a stranger.
God bless you, Ms. Premezzi, thank you for compassionately caring for this treasure of a man during his dark time.
I could've done without the strings intro. I don't think it was necessary.
oh yeah buddy?
@tone tsunam Yeah, the strings just don't go with this song.
There were connecting instrumentals between all or most of the songs on this album. There were strings on the previous song, so what you heard was the "connector" between the last song and this one.
Common sampled this
Nathan Ward do you know which song?
Communism
Thanks man!
Right on Baby, there was nothing wrong with you James.....You didn't need no mental institution.........
He was on heroin when his first album was released.he couldnt even tour to promote it.
Except a heroin habit.
Truth, but the man said it straight out, does that bug you?
Walter Bower Why, exactly, would you be so judgmental?
