Thunder and lightning is no lark

     G              C      D
When Dublin city is in the dark

We went out there to see the zoo

We saw the lion and the kangaroo

Up in the zoological garden

Says she to me "Sure we'll court on the lock"

       G            C          G        D

From outside the zoological garden
[Verse]

I'll have to get in with the hairy baboons"

Up in the zoological garden
[Verse]
     G               F      G
Says she to me "It's seven o'clock

    G                 C           D
And time for me to be changin' me frock

      G       C       G        D
For I long to see the old cockatoo"

Sure I love a ride on the elephant's back

If you don't get out that I'll give you such a crack

Up in the zoological garden
[Verse]

Oh, thunder and lightning is no lark

     G              C      D
When Dublin city is in the dark

   G             C        G         D
So if you've any money go up to the park

    G           D       G
