[Verse 1] As a caged chimpanzee Right Or really wrong Disguised in life As human right And they calls us a civilization We're treated like animals outside our cages If people see that you're tryin' They tear you up like hungry lion
[Chorus] Inside the zoo The human zoo What can I do It's gonna prove
[Verse 2] Just give your friend a break He'll bite the hand that feeds him like a rattlesnake And don't shut your eyes and try to sleep Otherwise another dog will steal your meat
[Chorus] Inside the zoo The human zoo What can I do It's gonna prove
[Verse 3] Zoo The human zoo We're free As a caged chimpanzee I don't like to get down on their level I bet it's your turn, I know it's terrible It's true
[Verse 4] The human zoo, now Not like they do, no I will prove For me and you, girl That inside of you I love you too I want you to In this human zoo, lord I'm comin' Uh huh, in this human zoo I'm gonna do this for me and you Oh, I want you too
