I remember the day we had nothing to do So we went down to the city zoo Just to kill an hour or two Out in the good sunshine We had so much fun We were glad that we came Feed all the animals And gave each a name Didn't even mind when it started to rain We had a real good time Now that its over and your far away I miss you more with each passin day And all my friends sympathize and say You'll for get in time Yes you will Give yourself a little time But it's already been over a year Just in case you interested You might like to hear How everyone is doing down at the city zoo with out you Well the monkey forgot you The hippo forgot you And so did the kangaroo But me and the elephant We still remember you Me and the elephant will never forget you Well I called down an old friend Trusted and true Sought his advice as to what I should do He said everything that reminds me of you Would all have to go So I burned all of your pictures Except two or three The one by my bed And the one on my TV And the one that I always carry with me everywhere I go And today was so nice And since I was in town I thought I'd take the opportunity to go down And see how everyone is down at the city zoo And what's new Well the rhino forgot you The zebra forgot you The polar bear and the tiger too But me and the elephant we still remember you Me and the elephant will never forget you
