This Town Ain't Big Enough for Both of Us
Zoo time is she and you time
The mammals are your favorite type
And you want her tonight
Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat
You hear the thunder of stampeding rhinos
Elephants attacking tigers
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
But it ain't me who's gonna leave
Flying, domestic flying
And when the stewardess is near
Do not show her your fear
Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat
You are a khaki-colored bombardier
It's Hiroshima that you're nearing
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
But it ain't me who's gonna leave
Daily, except for Sunday
You dawdle into the cafe
Where she meets you each day
Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat
As twenty cannibals have hold of you
They need their protein just like you do
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
But it ain't me who's gonna leave
Shower, another shower
You've got to look the best for her
And be clean everywhere
Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat
The rain is pouring on the foreign town
The bullets cannot cut you down
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
But it ain't me who's gonna leave
Census, the latest census
There'll be more girls who live in town
Though not enough to go around
Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat
You know that this town isn't big enough
Not big enough for the both of us
This town isn't big enough
Not big enough for the both of us
I ain't gonna leave
The mammals are your favorite type
And you want her tonight
Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat
You hear the thunder of stampeding rhinos
Elephants attacking tigers
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
But it ain't me who's gonna leave
Flying, domestic flying
And when the stewardess is near
Do not show her your fear
Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat
You are a khaki-colored bombardier
It's Hiroshima that you're nearing
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
But it ain't me who's gonna leave
Daily, except for Sunday
You dawdle into the cafe
Where she meets you each day
Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat
As twenty cannibals have hold of you
They need their protein just like you do
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
But it ain't me who's gonna leave
Shower, another shower
You've got to look the best for her
And be clean everywhere
Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat
The rain is pouring on the foreign town
The bullets cannot cut you down
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
But it ain't me who's gonna leave
Census, the latest census
There'll be more girls who live in town
Though not enough to go around
Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat
You know that this town isn't big enough
Not big enough for the both of us
This town isn't big enough
Not big enough for the both of us
I ain't gonna leave
