If you wanna hear all the latest news,
Zebra knows, Zebra knows!
Everybody’s business is Zebra’s too!
Zebra knows it all!
He chatters with the monkeys and kangaroos,
Zebra knows, Zebra knows!
Offers his opinion and thinks it’s true!
Zebra knows it all!
Wise owl thinks he’s nosey,
Everyone agrees!
But Zebra’s cool and cozy,
‘Cause the end of his nose, is all he sees!
Owl decides to teach him a thing or two.
(Zebra knows, Zebra knows)
He calls upon the monkeys and kangaroos
To show that know-it-all!
When Zebra comes to chatter,
No one says a word.
“Hey, guys, what’s the matter?”
Owl says, “Here’s some advice it’s time you heard!”
“Pack up your opinions and gossip, too!
‘Cause you don’t know, you don’t know!
And put ‘em on a plane bound for Katmandu!
Don’t be a know-it-all!”
Now Zebra knows, Zebra knows,
He doesn’t know it all!
