34 Far into the night
the visitors have come and gone
Never do we notice
the sleepy change
in territory
of watched all day
and control
all time
the visitors
don't question
but listen
and watch
to the photos
and non-stop noise
always loudly
until they close the doors
And bid us
goodnight
far into the night
we're free at last
the time is ours
and the visitors can't see
as animals in cages
for far too long
in fascination
don't think
it's only the visitors
who feel this way
always loudly
our noises
all noise
we make
far into
the middle of the night
if you listen
carefully
if your close enough
to our zoo
you'll hear us animals
in the far off night
impossibility
of hearing
for drowned
we are
by the night time
cityscape
listen carefully
here comes a hidden reminder
that here we are
and wide awake
while your
locked up in houses
and sleeping off the day
were possibly maybe
you might of seen us
earlier in the day
now it's time for us animals
to come out and play
never did anyone know
of our ways that night
until its dawn
we'll do as we please
even though its impossible
to unlock our cage
we'll damn well
deal
with you
when we're back again
