This Town Ain’t Big Enough for Both of Us

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Zoo time, is she and you time The mammals are your favourite type, and you want her, tonight Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat You hear the thunder of stampeding rhinos, elephants, and tacky tigers [Refrain] This town ain't big enough for the both of us And it ain't me who's gonna leave [Verse 2] Flying, domestic flying And when the stewardess is near do not show any fear Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat You are a khaki-coloured bombardier, it's Hiroshima that you're nearing [Refrain] This town ain't big enough for both of us And it ain't me who's gonna leave [Verse 3] Daily, except for Sunday You dawdle into the cafe where you meet her each day Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat As 20 cannibals have hold of you, they need their protein just like you do [Refrain] This town ain't big enough for the both of us And it ain't me who's gonna leave [Instrumental Interlude] And-no! [Verse 4] Shower, another shower You've got to look your best for her, and be clean everywhere Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat The rain is pouring on the foreign town, the bullets cannot cut you down [Refrain] This town ain't big enough for the both of us And it ain't me who's gonna leave [Verse 5] Census, the latest census There'll be more girls who live in town though not enough to, go 'round Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat [Outro] You know that this town isn't big enough, not big enough for both of us This town isn't big enough, not big enough for both of us I ain't gonna leave!
