Apeman

I think I'm sophisticated 'cause I'm living my life

Like a good Homo sapiens

But all around me everybody's multiplying

And they're walking 'round like flies, man

So I'm not better than the animals

Sitting in the cages in the zoo, man

'Cause compared to the flowers, the birds in the trees -

I am an apeman!

I think I'm so educated and I'm so civilized

'Cause I'm a strict vegetarian

But the over-population and inflation and starvation

And the crazy politicians

I don't feel safe in this world no more

I don't wanna die in a nuclear war

I wanna sail away to a distant shore

And make like an apeman

I'm an apeman, I'm an ape, apeman

Oh, I'm an apeman

I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodoo man

Oh, I'm an apeman

Compared to the sun that sits in the sky

Compared to the clouds as they're rolling by

Compared to the bugs and the spiders and flies -

I am an apeman!

In man's evolution he's created the city

And the motor traffic rumble

But give me half a chance and I'd be taking off my clothes

And living in the jungle

Because the only time that I feel at ease

Is swinging up and down in the coconut trees

Oh, what a life of luxury

To be like an apeman

I'm an apeman, I'm an ape, apeman

Oh, I'm an apeman

I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodoo man

Oh, I'm an apeman

I look out the window, but I can't see the skies

The air pollution is a-fucking up my eyes

I wanna get out of this city alive

And make like an apeman

Come on and love me

Be my apeman girl!

And we'll be so happy

In my apeman world!

I'm an apeman, I'm an ape, apeman

Oh, I'm an apeman

I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodoo man

Well, I'm an apeman

I'll be your Tarzan and you'll be my Jane

I'll keep you warm and you'll keep me sane

We'll sit in the trees and eat bananas all day

And live like an apeman

I'm an apeman, I'm an ape, apeman

Oh, I'm an apeman

I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodoo man

Oh, I'm an apeman

I don't feel safe in this world no more

I don't wanna die in a nuclear war

I wanna sail away to a distant shore

And live like an apeman
