The tiger he looked out of his cage and smiled .
  He said "Come here , boy , I want to talk to you a while"
  He said "I once was runnin' wild and free just the same as you .
  But it's one step from the jungle to the zoo"
  
  It's one step from the jungle to the zoo
  you'd better watch out
  or they're gonna get you too .
  They clip your claws ,cut your hair
  make a pussy cat out of you .
  It's one step from the jungle to the zoo
  
  He said "Son , when you go runnin' through the grass
  you'd better look out for all the hidden traps .
  They'll feed you sweets and goodies
  til you're too fat to move
  then it's one step from the jungle to the zoo"
  
  It's one step from the jungle to the zoo
  you'd better watch out
  or they're gonna get you too .
  They clip your claws ,yank your fangs
  make a pussy cat out of you .
  It's one step from the jungle to the zoo
