Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There wasn't any snow on Christmas eve
And I knew what I should do
I thought I'd free the animals all locked up at the zoo
I opened up the fence where the peacocks were
The llamas were unleashed
The snakes and seals could all get out
But they refused to leave
[Verse 2]
All of the animals agreed
They're not happy at the zoo
But they preferred to save themselves
They seemed to think they could
[Verse 3]
The elephants, orangutans all the
Birds and kangaroos
All said, "Thanks, but no thanks man"
To be concerned is good
[Verse 4]
It started to snow on Christmas eve
In the middle of the night
Walking through the state once
And everything is white
