Song lyrics
I think I'm sophisticated 'cause I'm livin' my life 
like a good homo sapien 
But all around me everybody's multiplyin' 
and they're walkin' 'round like flies, man 
So I'm no better than the animals sitting in the cages in the zoo, man 
'Cause compared to the flowers and 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 
With the overpopulation 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 

'Cause 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 

In man's evolution he's created the city and the motor traffic rumble 
But give me half a chance, 
and I'll be takin' off my clothes and living in the jungle 

'Cause 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-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 
The evolution is a-fuckin' up my eyes 
I wanna get out of this city alive 
And make like an apeman 

La la la la la la la 

Oh come on and love me, 
Be my apeman girl 
And we 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, oh 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 
We'll sit in the trees and eat bananas all day 
Just 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 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 

La la la la la la la
