ZIMBA ZOOT
Down on the floor where the dust bugs go
A tiny life is starting to grow
It spluttered and sparked getting fatter and fatter
A brand new life eating left over matter
A blinking eye and dancing feet
A furry body with bright white teeth
Hopping along on foot to foot
The start of the life of Zimba Zoot
If you look closely at the dust below
Zimba Zoot continues to grow
He has no mum, he has no dad
How he got there was totally mad
A blinking eye and dancing feet
A furry body with bright white teeth
Way down low by the skirting board
Zimba Zoot is an alien Lord
Down on the floor where the dust bugs go
Zimba Zoot is controlling the show
All the bugs now work for him
He is the new skirting board King
A blinking eye and dancing feet
A furry body with bright white teeth
King Zimba came from a falling star
An alien life from a land so far
Zimba climbed to the window sill
Feeling so high it made him ill
Up in the sky he saw from afar
Another brilliant shooting star
A blinking eye and dancing feet
A furry body with bright white teeth
Others like him were falling too
Zimba Zoot and his alien crew
King Zimba now had a clan of his own
And a Zimba King lived in every home
So look down low and you might meet
A blinking eye and dancing feet.
