Adam the Ants - The Idea lyrics

Adam Ant

I went to the zoo

to look at the animals

the first thing I saw

was a wallfull of handclaps

some wearing green hats

and all sucking chocky bars

so I went and looked at

the three horned chameleon

the idea

he walked up and down

just trying to get close to me

a split little hand

scratching at the glass

I looked at the snakes

and I looked at the crocodiles

you'd better

show me the man

who made all of this

the idea

I could be religious if ...

you didn't have to kneel down

I could be religious if ...

a god would say "hello"

I could be religious if ...

an angel touched my shoulder

I could be religious if ...

they set the hymns to disco

(like this)

holy holy holy

lord god almighty

god in three persons

beloved trinity

holy holy holy

all the saints adore thee

christ in three persons

belovedtrinity
