"Apeman" - The Kinks

I think I'm sophisticated
'Cos I'm living my life
Like a good Homo sapi-an

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 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 politici-ans

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

Lalalalalalala

In man's evolution he's 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

'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 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 the window
But I can't see the sky
The air pollution is foggin' up my eyes
I want to get out of this city alive
And make like an ape man

Lalalalalalala

Come and love me
Be my ape man girl
And we'd 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
And 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

Lalalalalalala
i'm gonna go ahead and move this to noise pollution, i assume there'll be no objections...
