This Town Ain't Big Enough for Both of Us

Zoo time is she-and-you time

The mammals are your favorite type

And you wander tonight

Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat

You hear the thunder of stampeding rhinos

Elephants and tacky tigers

This town ain't big enough for the both of us

Heaven's in me, who's gonna leave?

Flying, domestic flying, and when the stewardess is near

Do not show any fear

Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat

You are a khaki-colored bombardier

It's Hiroshima that you're nearing

This town ain't big enough for both of us

Heaven's in me, who's gonna leave?

Daily, except for Sunday

You dawdle into the café

Where you meet her each day

Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat

As twenty cannibals have hold of you

They make their protein just like you do

This town ain't big enough for the both of us

Heaven's in me, who's gonna leave?

Shower, another shower

You've got to look your best for her and be clean anyway

Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat

The rain is pouring on the foreign town

The bullets cannot cut you down

This town ain't big enough for the both of us

Heaven's in me, who's gonna leave?

Census, the latest census

There'll be more girls who live in town

Though there aren't enough to go round

Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat

You'll know that this town isn't beg enough

This town isn't big enough, not big enough

For both of us

I ain't gonna leave
