Hamsters get all freak with me.
Hamsters turn on frequently.
Hamsters journal frequently.
Hamsters turn on frequently.
I don't believe, I don't believe it's true.
I do believe it, I do believe it's true.
And hamsters turn on frequently,
What the cats get at the pharmacy,
At the zoo
And hamsters turn on frequently,
What a gas, you've got to come and see,
At the zoo
It seems there are different versions of these lyrics from different recordings/performances, but I am pretty sure the one with the cats getting something at the pharmacy hasn't been heard - but misheard.
And the Zoo keepers is very on the run
And the Zoo keepers is very fond of rum
Orangutans are skeptical
Of changes in their cages
And the zooky bird is very fond of rum
Orangutans are skeptical
Of changes in their cages
And the zookeeper is very fond of rum
