Song and lyrics

Lyrics: Uh! Feeling low I need some time to think. By myself I pour another drink So many thoughts keep running through my head I can't stay here, I hit the club instead. I'm poppin' bottles just to clear my mind. Bitches upon me and they looking fine. We doing lines they wanna go all night. (Go all night) but deep inside there's something still ain't right. So then I go to the zoo! Just kinda wonder round the zoo. I look at the monkeys their eyes look like my eyes. It's so relaxing at the zoo sayin' 'what's up' to kangaroos. My boys awake 'cause they nocturnal. I really, really like the zoo. Next night I got this bitch up in my 'rari. We drinkin' crys', we eating calamari. She trying to give me neck, this life insane. But there is only one thing that can ease my pain I tell her 'get the hell out' then I go to the zoo in San Diego! It’s really such a better zoo My favorite is probably the cheetahs but I ain't messin with no zebra. I know the nightguard at the zoo His name is Ron, my man's legit. He knows that I love panda canyon sometimes he lets me bottle feed the cub. Man... when's it gonna stop? when's it gonna end? Sometimes even the zoo isn't enough So then... I go to the aquarium! Its like a zoo for fishies I know the nightguard there too! Wait! Whhat the hell happened to Susan? He kicks me out here's what I do... I take my ass back to the zoo!
