Angel Zoo
Phlake Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's a house on a hill in a driveway
I see a busted angel looking my way
Oh no, stay low, grey crows
It ain't your business, what I wanna do now

Oh, I don't wanna take a bow, woah
'Cause I've been dreaming for a while, oh
I settle with the butterflies, no
The night is going out of style, woah
Since I can't forget why I went for it, oh
Then why don't we just make it now? No
Ain't no need to wait it

I fly with angels in my zoo
I tried reaching out at the wild moon
Ruin clouds, just do it now
Play on through it, make it now
High with the feeling in this flume
I tried swimming under the wild moon
Ruin clouds, just do it now
Wave on through it, take it out

Oh, I'm an angel in a raincoat, woah
Driving in a Range Rov', oh
I always wear the same clothes, no
Stranger than my dress code, woah
In my blind ambition kit, tissues don't regret
So why don't we just make it now? No
Ain't no need to wait it

I fly with angels in my zoo
I tried reaching out at the wild moon
Ruin clouds, just do it now
Play on through it, make it now
High with the feeling in this flume
I tried swimming under the wild moon
Ruin clouds, just do it now
Wave on through it, take it out

Angels come and go
Don't let ambition lead you blind, I'm taken out of time
Can't go flying with a crow (I can't)
Gotta leave the house, I gotta leave it now
'Cause I'm on it, on it, on it, on it, I'm on it
Ha-du-du-du-du
On it, on it, I'm on it
I fly away now and I'll promise you to wait

I fly with angels in my zoo
I tried reaching out at the wild moon
Ruin clouds, just do it now
Play on through it, make it now
High with the feeling in this flume
I tried swimming under the wild moon




Ruin clouds, just do it now
Wave on through it, take it out

Overall Meaning

The song "Angel Zoo," sung by the Danish band Phlake is an emotional and introspective track that beautifully expresses the complex emotional state of the singer. The beginning lines of the song set the stage for the contemplative mood of the song. The house on the hill represents the past, a place that the singer left behind, and the busted angel, a representation of herself, reminding her of the painful memories she left behind. The gray crows signify the negative thoughts that try to bring the singer down. The song encourages the singer to ignore those thoughts and focus on what she wants to do.


The lyrics continue to reflect the singer's emotional state, with the use of metaphors like "angels in my zoo" and "swimming under the wild moon." These are an indication of personal struggles and the search for meaning and purpose in life. The singer is seeking to understand herself better and find her way in life. The entire song is an invitation to leave the past behind and focus on the present; it is a reflection of the universal human struggle to find oneself.
