Lyrics
I think I'm sophisticated
'Cause I'm living my life like a good homosapien
But all around me, everybody's multiplying
'Til they're walking 'round like flies man
So I'm no better than the animals sitting in their cages
In the zoo man
'Cause compared to the flowers and the birds and the trees
I am an apeman
I think I'm so educated and I'm so civilized
'Cause 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 apeman
I'm an apeman
I'm an ape, apeman
I'm an apeman
I'm a King Kong man
I'm voodoo man
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
In man's evolution he has created the city and
The motor traffic rumble, but give me half a chance
And I'd be taking off my clothes and living in the jungle
'Cause the only time that I feel at ease
Is swinging up and down in a coconut tree
O, what a life of luxury
To be like an ape man
I'm an apeman
I'm an ape, apeman
I'm an apeman
I'm a King Kong man
I'm a voodoo man
I'm an apeman
I look out the 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 apeman
Come on and love me
Be my apeman, girl
And we'll 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
I'm a voodoo man
I'm an apeman
I'll be your Tarzan, you'll be my Jane
