THIS TOWN AIN'T BIG ENOUGH FOR BOTH OF US

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

This town ain't big enough for both of us

And it ain't me who's gonna leave

Flying domestic flying

And when the stewardess is near do not show any fear
Heartbeat increasing heartbeat

You are a khaki-coloured bombadier it's Hiroshima that you're nearing

This town ain't big enough for both of us

And it ain't me who's gonna leave

Daily, except for Sunday

You dawdle in to the cafe where you meet her 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 both of us

And it ain't me who's gonna leave

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

This town ain't big enough for both of us

And 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 round
Heartbeat, increasing heartbeat

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

And I ain't gonna leave
