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 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 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?" 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!
