Voice 1

Here we are gathered at the zoo

Lots of field trips and people with nothing else to do

Waiting for a miracle or two

Here we are walking side by side

Lots of pretty ladies with lots of okay guys

Waiting for a miracle to arrive

Now there’s someone in the crowd

His friends call us over as he jumps down

Voice 2

People are looking at me today

They’re telling me to get up

They’re telling me to get out while I can

They’re saying that the lions weren’t fed today

Survival is a long shot

They’ve never heard of lion not eating man

Not eating man

People are gathered around the pit

They’re talking round in circles

As the lions are circling

They’re circling

Voice 1

Here we are looking at the fool

Some people think they can do whatever they want to

They’re willing to die for the views

The lions draw near, and he sticks out a hand

He pats one on the head, and he calls it Aslan

He tells us that he’s more than just a man

With the lion’s calm

They lay down in the pen as the man sings psalms

Voice 2

Holy cow I’m so glad that it worked

I thought I was a carcass

A walking piece of chef’s kiss in the dirt

Didn’t know what else to do but sing

Sang something of the wicked

Let God’s voice channel through me

Channel through me

The zookeeper got down on his knees

Asked to bless him on the temple

Right there for everyone to see

For all to see

Voice 1

Here we are with our sins depraved

The blessed man says that the zookeeper has now been saved

The prophet’s name is Daniel Cave

Here we watch as he spends the night

The zoo stayed open so people can see the sight

Know that Daniel’s sleeping all right

Right there in the pit

He wakes up in the morning and tells his shtick

Voice 2

More people are looking at me today

I tell them to come follow

I tell them to come follow me away

People have their phones pointed at me

I’ve never felt such power

I’ve never felt the world looking at me

Revolve around me

I tell them I have some tasks to do

They should come and watch me

Bring along their faith and all their views

Voice 1

Here we are as he rides atop

The lion that he named and the zookeeper doesn’t try to stop

The lion and the prophet as they jump

The whole zoo seems to follow en masse

“Celebrity” is thrown around as through the city they pass

I wonder when the whole thing will run out of gas
