Lyrics

I don't know what it is about my figure and my style

But when I walk abroad, the passers by do smile

I lost myself in Kensington/about a week today

I asked a cabman my way home

And to me he did say

That's the way to the zoo

That's the way to the zoo

The monkey house is nearly full

But there's room enough for you

Take a bus to Regent's Park

Make haste before it shuts / Next Sunday I shall come and give you such a bunch of nuts
