CHORUS
Thelma Brown lived in a zoo
There were cows in her kitchen and roosters on view
Dogs in her dining room, cats in there too
And a husband called Cedric and a big kangaroo.

Ev’ry morn at six o’clock sharp
Thelma Brown arose in the dark
Cats and dogs, roosters and crows, kangaroos to attend
And a husband called Cedric who was going round the bend

CHORUS

Every night at half after nine
Cedric would say, “Oh dear its about my bedtime”
And every morn he’d awake with a snore
With the kangaroo in bed, and him on the floor!

CHORUS

One day Thelma brought home a giraffe
Cedric well he just broke down and laughed.
“Thelma dear, there’s no room in our zoo”
“But Cedric” she said, “how ‘bout the loo?”

CHORUS

What can you say, what can you do
When you live with a wife, who lives in a zoo?
Well you can’t make a fuss, you can’t even complain
Cos if you do you just end up out in the rain.

Thelma Brown lived in a zoo
There were cows in her kitchen and roosters on view
Dogs in her dining room, cats in there too
And a husband called Cedric who’s about to shoot through!
