Lyrics
I'm ready I'm ready for the laughing gas I'm ready I'm ready for what's next I'm ready to duck I'm ready to dive I'm ready to say I'm glad to be alive I'm ready I'm ready for the push In the cool of the night In the warmth of the breeze I'll be crawling around On my hands and knees Zoo Station Zoo Station I'm ready I'm ready for the gridlock I'm ready To take it to the street I'm ready for the shuffle Ready for the deal Ready to let go of the steering wheel I'm ready Ready for the crush Zoo Station Zoo Station Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright Hey baby, hey baby, hey baby, hey baby It's alright, it's alright Alright, you can turn it up Time is a train Makes the future the past Leaves you standing in the station Your face pressed up against the glass Zoo Station
