Zombie Zoo

by:
Tom Petty

All down the street they're standin' in line

With white lipstick and one thing on their mind

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 she shows up with her friends

half-alive

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 she shows up with her friends

half-alive

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
