Uncaged Zoo Song
[Intro: HaleyJane Rose & Lil' Car-Car]
Hey, boys
Listen up
It's ya girl H.J
And lil' car-car
You better get ready for a feminist pop anthem
So take notes
And what better backdrop than...
The zoo

[Chorus: HaleyJane Rose & Lil' Car-Car]
Nobody can cage us
Wild and free
Boys, don't try to tame us
Throw away the key
If you're gonna be our man then understand
We won't heed to your commands
I'm not chained to you
I'm sick of livin' in your zoo

[Verse 1: HaleyJane Rose & Lil' Car-Car]
Yeah, but what is this place anyway?
It's a zoo
Yeah, but...
What is that?
You've... you've never heard of a zoo?
No
A zoo is an establishment
Which maintains
A collection of wild animals
All contained
For study and conservation of a species
On display for the public to see
And that's kind of like us!
[Chorus: HaleyJane Rose & Lil' Car-Car]
Nobody can cage us
Wild and free
Boys, don't try to tame us
Throw away the key
You can try to clip our wings
But we'll still sing
Boy, you don't mean a thing
I'm not chained to you
I'm sick of livin' in your zoo

[Verse 2: HaleyJane Rose & Lil' Car-Car]
So, you get it!
Totally
So, how do the animals get here?
Uh...
Do they walk from Europe?
Oh, god
Um, no, there's a lot wrong there
Walking's absolutely not involved
(uh)
There's an ocean between here and Africa
A team of zoologists are called
(yeah)
To help a dying breed
But then they're bred in captivity
Just like the patriarchy
And that's just like us!
Yes!
[Chorus: HaleyJane Rose & Lil' Car-Car]
Nobody can cage us
Wild and free
Boys, don't try to tame us
Throw away the key

[Verse 3: HaleyJane Rose & Lil' Car-Car]
So, can I take one home?
I kinda want that cute little fuzzy boy
That's an Australian Saltwater Crocodile
It says so on the plaque
(hm)
If you took one home you'd definitely be attacked
It's not like a PetSmart
What is that?
No, oh my god!

[Chorus: HaleyJane Rose & Lil' Car-Car,HaleyJane Rose]
Nobody can cage us
Wild and free
(Have you seen Madagascar?)
Boys, don't try to tame us
Throw away the key
(Or gone on a school trip?)

[Verse 4: HaleyJane Rose & Lil' Car-Car]
Do you wanna hear me roar?
Hey, Siri, what is a zoo?
Carly, that's a calculator
It's a giraffe-ing calculator
What? No
Mess with the tiger, you'll get the claws
Claws are pointy, right!?
Yes!?
No monkey business, if you're gonna be with me
I wanna ride that fluffy blue thing!
No, that's cotton candy
[Chorus: HaleyJane Rose & Lil' Car-Car, HaleyJane Rose, Lil' Car-Car]
Nobody can cage us
Wild and free
(You've seen We Bought a Zoo, right?)
Boys, don't try to tame us
Throw away the key
(It's a nuanced Matt Damon film)
(Directed by Cameron Crowe)
If you're gonna be our man then understand
They have crows here!?
We won't heed to your commands
I'm not chained to you
I'm sick of livin' in your zoo

[Verse 5: HaleyJane Rose & Lil' Car-Car]
What's Matt Damon?
