APEMAN
I THINK I'M SO SOPHISTICATED 'COS I'M LIVING MY LIFE
LIKE A GOOD HOMOSAPIEN
BUT ALL AROUND ME EVERYBODY'S MULTIPLYING
AND THEY'RE WALKING ROUND LIKE FLIES MAN
SO I'M NO BETTER THAN THE ANIMALS SITTING
IN THEIR CAGES IN A ZOO MAN
'COS CPMPARED TO THE FLOWERS AND THE BIRDS
AND THE TREES I AM AN APEMAN
I THINK I'M SO EDUCATED AND I'M SO CIVILISED
'COS I'M A STRICT VEGETARIAN
AND WITH 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 APEMAN
** I'M AN APEMAN I'M AN APE APE MAN OH
I'M AN APEMAN
I'M A KING KONG MAN I'M A VOODOO MAN OH I'M AN APEMAN
'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 APEMAN LA - LA - LA
LA - LA - LA - LA LA - LA - LA - LA
(spoken)
IN MAN'S EVOLUTION HE HAS CREATED THE CITIES
AND THE MOTOR TRAFFIC RUMBLE
BUT GIVE ME HALF A CHANCE AND I'LL BE TAKING OFF MY CLOTHES
AND LIVING IN THE JUNGLE
( sung )
BUT 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 APEMAN
I'M AN APEMAN I'M AN APE APE MAN 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 SKY
'COS THE AIR POLLUTION IS A FOGGIN' UP MY EYES
I WANT TO GET OUT OF THIS CITY ALIVE
AND MAKE LIKE AN APEMAN
LA - LA - LA LA - LA - LA
- LA LA - LA - LA - LA
COME ON AND LOVE ME
BE MY APEMAN GIRL
AND WE'LL BE SO HAPPY IN MY APEMAN WORLD
