I didn't grow up with no brothers or sisters
But elephants, marmosets, leopards and lemurs
I guess I can use it as my excuse
And I hope you'll excuse me if I'm acting rude

CHORUS
'Cause I wasn't raised among you
I wasn't raised to love you
I was raised in a zoo
Oh I was raised in a zoo

When I was a baby
My mama told me I'm just me
Zpg
'Cause of zero population growth
Now you see, now you understand me
I'm a manifest manifestation manifesto of a misanthropic oath

REPEAT CHORUS

So I won't be coming to your party
But it was sure nice of you to invite me
'Cause I've noticed a certain tendency of people to
stick within their own species

And I didn't grow up with no sisters no brothers
Just imaginary twins with blind mothers
So I guess I can use it as my excuse
And I hope you'll excuse me if I'm acting rude

REPEAT CHORUS
