I think I'm sophisticated
|
'Cos I'm living my life
|
like a good homosapien
|
But all around me
|
everybody's multiplying
|
Till they're walking round
|
like flies man
|
So I'm no better than the
|
animals sitting in their cages
|
in the zoo man
|
'Cos compared to the flowers
|
and the birds and the trees
|
I am an ape man
|
I think I'm so educated
|
and I'm so civilized
|
'Cos I'm a strict vegetarian
|
But with the over-population
|
and inflation and starvation
|
And the crazy politicians
|
I don't feel safe
|
in this world no more
|
I don't want to die
|
in a nuclear war
|
I want to sail away
|
to a distant shore
|
and make like an ape man
|
I'm an ape man
|
I'm an ape ape man
|
I'm an ape man
|
I'm a King Kong man
|
I'm ape ape man
|
I'm an ape man
|
'Cos compared to the sun
|
that sits in the sky
|
compared to the clouds
|
as they roll by
|
Compared to the bugs
|
and the spiders and flies
|
I am an ape man
|
In man's evolution
|
he has created the cities
|
and the motor traffic rumble
|
but give me half a chance
|
and I'd be taking off my clothes
|
and living in the jungle
|
'Cos the only time
|
that I feel at ease
|
Is swinging up and down
|
in a coconut tree
|
Oh what a life of luxury
|
to be like an ape man
|
I'm an ape
|
I'm an ape ape man
|
I'm an ape man
|
I'm a King Kong man
|
I'm a voo-doo man
|
I'm an ape man
|
I look out my window
|
but I can't see the sky
|
'Cos the air pollution
|
is fogging up my eyes
|
I want to get out
|
of this city alive
|
And make like an ape man
|
Come and love me
|
be my ape man girl
|
And we will be so happy
|
in my ape man world
|
I'm an ape man
|
I'm an ape ape man
|
I'm an ape man
|
I'm a King Kong man
|
I'm a voo-doo man
|
I'm an ape man
|
I'll be your Tarzan
|
you'll be my Jane
|
I'll keep you warm
|
and you'll keep me sane
|
and we'll sit in the trees
|
and eat bananas all day
|
Just like an ape man
|
I'm an ape man
|
I'm an ape ape man
|
I'm an ape man
|
I'm a King Kong man
|
I'm a voo-doo man
|
I'm an ape man
|
I don't feel safe
|
in this world no more
|
I don't want to die
|
in a nuclear war
|
I want to sail away
|
to a distant shore
|
And make like an ape man
|
