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
oh I'm an ape man
I'm a King Kong man
I'm a voodoo man
oh 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
Na na na na
na na na-na
naa na na naa
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 man
I'm an ape ape man
oh I'm an ape man
I'm a King Kong man
I'm a voodoo man
oh I'm an ape man
I look out my window
but I can't see the sky
the air pollution
is fogging up my eyes
I want to get out
of this city alive
and make like
an ape man
Na na na na
na na na-na
naa na na naa
Come on and love me
be my ape man girl
And we'll be so happy
in my ape man world
I'm an ape man
I'm an ape ape man
oh I'm an ape man
I'm a King Kong man
I'm a voodoo man
oh 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
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
oh I'm an ape man
I'm a King Kong man
I'm a voodoo man
oh 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
Na na na na
na na na-na
naa na na naa
