Lyrics

One morning Ollie escaped from his zoo cage
To the country where he sought out birds
He went strolling through the streets like a white-tailed deer
Giving birth in backyards

“He came back to the zoo” was the official story
“With some scratches and a minor disease”
Don’t bother believing that explanation
Tony’ll tell you the truth,
They found a patsy bobcat

Wild animals don’t have time for cages
And the locks that kept them interred
They always follow their sense of which direction
Takes them to the nearest food

Ollie found a dumpster near the Refugee Safeway
With the hidden stash of grapefruit juice
There’s no way he went back to animal prison
Like Oswald the government sold to you
A patsy bobcat
