Karaoké Apeman The Kinks

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

Because 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

La la la la la la la la la la la

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 walking 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 a-fogging up my eyes

I want to get out of this city alive and make like an ape man

La la la la la la la la la la la

Come on 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 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 la la la la la la la
