Small girl with the smiling gibbon
Bridled with an orchid ribbon
His curved brow in Scarlatti fashion
Boots that ride the night sky eagle
Salamanda Palaganda, oh, Palamino Blue
Salamanda Palaganda, oh, June's buffalo too
In the Parisian zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo
An old crone squirms upon a cushion
Made from Madras silk and satin
Her steel eyes hold a scimitar passion
For the skull hewn in Scarlatti fashion
Salamanda Palaganda, oh, Palamino Blue
Salamanda Palaganda, oh, June's buffalo too
In the Parisian zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo - do-it-ju-hoo
A cobra seer with the punctured ear
Slaughtered on a Malayan sun bear
Night stood erect with bronzen haunches
Zapped the seer and gave the bear back to us
Salamanda Palaganda, oh, Palamino Blue
Salamanda Palaganda, oh, June's buffalo too
In the Parisian zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo
