Lyrics

So we got married in
Venice in
June, so what?
We circled the earth in a hot air balloon, so what?
And the rest of our lives
Is one long honeymoon
Well, that doesn't mean we're in love
If you really loved me
You'd buy me a beautiful pearl
But you've already bought me
All of the pearls in the world
So there's one thing
I craveWhen my days become ho-hum and blah
I want a zebra
We've got so many tchotchkes
We've practically emptied the
LouvreIn most of our palaces
There's hardly room to manoeuvre
Well I shan't go to
Bali today
I must stay home and hoovre
Up the gold dust
That doesn't mean we're in love
If you really loved me
You'd buy me the
Great Pyramid
Oh, I'm so forgetful, you already did
But there's one think
I needIf you won't think
I'm greedy, my dear
Another zebra
Zelda looks lonely,
I want a zebra
