Stephin Merritt - Zebra lyrics

So we got married in Venice in June, so what? We circled the earth in a hot air balloon, so what? And the rest of our lives Is one long honeymoon Well, that doesn't mean we're in love If you really loved me You'd buy me a beautiful pearl But you've already bought me All of the pearls in the world So there's one thing I crave When my days become ho-hum and blah I want a zebra We've got so many tchotchkes We've practically emptied the Louvre In most of our palaces There's hardly room to manoeuvre Well I shan't go to Bali today I must stay home and hoovre Up the gold dust That doesn't mean we're in love If you really loved me You'd buy me the Great Pyramid Oh, I'm so forgetful, you already did But there's one think I need If you won't think I'm greedy, my dear Another zebra Zelda looks lonely, I want a zebra
