All down the street they're standin in line with white lipstick and one thing on their mind hey little freak with the lunch pail purse underneath the paint you're just a little girl Dancin at the zombie zoo, dancin at the zombie zoo Painted in a corner and all you wanna do Is dance down at the zombie zoo Cute little dropout, how come you pack a rod? Is your mother in a clinic? Has your father got no job? Sometimes you're so impulsive you shaved off all your hair you look like Boris Karloff and you don't even care You're dancin at the zombie zoo dancin at the zombie zoo She disappears at sunrise, I wonder where she goes until The night comes fallin down again she shows up with her friends half-alive You can make a big impression or go through life unseen You might wind up restricted and over seventeen It's so hard to be careful, so easy to be led Somewhere beyond the pavement you'll find the living dead
