[E] [D]
[A]
I think I'm sophisticated cause I'm living my life [E] like a good homo sapien
But [A]
all around me everybody's multiplying [E] and I'm walking around like flies man
[D] So I'm no better than the animals sitting [A] in the cages in the zoo man
But compared to the flowers and the birds and the trees [E] I am an [A] ape [F] man
[G]
[A] I'm so educated I'm not so civilized cause [E] I'm a strict vegetarian
But [A] with the overpopulation and inflation and starvation [E] and the crazy politicians
I
[D] don't feel safe in this world no more [A] I don't wanna die in a nuclear war
I wanna sail away to a distant shore [E] and back like [A] an ape man
I'm an ape man I'm an ape ape man [E] no I'm an ape man
[A] Well I'm a king kong man I'm a voodoo man [E] I'm an ape man
[D] Because compared to the sun that sits in the sky
[A] Compared to the clouds that say roll by
Compared to the bugs and the spiders and flies
[E] I am [A] an ape man
[D]
YOLO DEROLA LA LA LA LA [A] LA LA LA [D] [A] Yeah
[F] [A]
Well in man's evolution he created a city [E] and a motor traffic rumble Vroom Vroom
Well [A] give me half a chance and I'll be taking off my clothes [E] and living in the jungle
Yes I will
[D] Because the only time that I feel at ease
[A] Is swinging up and down in a coconut tree
Oh what a life of luxury [E] to be [A] like an ape man
I'm an ape man I'm an ape ape man no [E] I'm an ape man
Well [A] I'm a king kong man I'm a voodoo man [E] no I'm an ape man
[D]
I look out the window but I can't see the skies
[A] The air pollution is a bucket of ice
I wanna get out of this city and life
[E] And make like [A] an ape man
YOLO [D]
