The Kinks - Apeman
текст песни

I think I'm sophisticated
'cos Im 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 dont feel safe in this world no more
I dont 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 apeman I'm an apeman
I'm a king kong man I'm ape apeman
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

In mans evolution he's 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 apeman

I'm an ape, I'm an ape apeman, I'm an apeman
I'm a king kong man, I'm a voo-doo man
I'm an apeman

I look out my window, but I can 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 apeman

Come and love me, be my apeman girl
And we will be so happy in my apeman world

I'm an apeman, I'm an ape apeman, I'm an apeman
I'm a king kong man, Im a voo-doo man
I'm an apeman

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 apeman

I'm an apeman, I'm an ape apeman, I'm an apeman
I'm a king kong man, I'm a voo-doo man
I'm an apeman.

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.
