At The Zoo
Ever heard of the album "Bookends" by Simon & Garfunkel?? Well if you havn't you're a deprived child! it's great! Everyone needs to have a copy of this... it needs to be a staple in your musical collection! It'll give you some much needed knowledge! lolol
"Bookends" is the fourth studio album coming from this amazing duo! There are so many good tracks, it's hard to pick a favorite....
-Bookends Theme
-America
-Old Friends
-Mrs. Robinson
-A Hazy Shade of Winter!!!
And of course the track i chose for today, "At The Zoo"
"At The Zoo" is such a fun song!!! It's said that Paul Simon wrote the song as a sort of tribute to his hometown city, New York. The song is rumored to be about a trip taken to the Central Park Zoo (assuming some psychedelic drugs were used...). While there, Simon comes up with all different human attributions and gives them to all the zoo animals.... quite funny!
My favorite:
"The monkeys stand for honesty,Giraffes are insincere,And the elephants are kindly butThey're dumb."
