'Cos I'm 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 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
I'm an ape man I'm a King Kong man I'm ape ape man
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
In man's evolution he has 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 ape man
I'm an ape, I'm an ape ape man, I'm an ape man
I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voo-doo man
I'm an ape man
I look out my window, but I can't 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 ape man
Come and love me, be my ape man girl
And we will be so happy in my ape man world
I'm an ape man, I'm an ape ape man, I'm an ape man
I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voo-doo man
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, I'm an ape man
I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voo-doo man
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.
oo oo ah ah oo oo ah ahh ooo ooo ah ahh ooo oo ahh ahh
Can I quote you on that?
oo oo ah ah oo oo ah ahh ooo ooo ah ahh ooo oo ahh ahh
That's what she said.
not feeling quite as secure about that currently (February 2023) with Putin threatening possible use of nuclear enabled weapons...
I don't want to die in a nuclear war
More than ever in 2022 - holy shit, how the years pass by!
+1
... will be applicable a couple more years I reckon until something fundamental changes...
Just goes to show that there is nothing new under the sun.
Well I was alive in the 70s, just barley...born in '77 - at least I missed Disco! Long Live RP!!
yeah, well disco...Do the Hustle did bring a whole new thing to our tiny Alaska backwoods prom night. Followed by Fog Hat; what more could you ask for back then?
Slava Ukrani.
Released in 1970. Still applicable in 2018.

Hey Bill, there are other great songs on this album that need to be played.
I AGREE!
Released in 1970. Still applicable in 2018.
Agreed. Feels even more applicable on the eve of 2022.
The first single I ever bought with my own pocket money. I'd been given Rolf Harris's "Two little boys" the preceding Christmas, so I like to think it was a big step forward.
I like your style. Shame Rolf let everyone down so badly.
As I write this we are in the final 9 days of the Trump Administration. I don't need to say anything more.
You could just take your Keester to PSD without all the drama. Sheesh.
These guys are special.
Top it off with "Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except For Me And My Monkey".
If you were alive in the 70s and listened to FM radio, you heard this. Couldn't escape it. Lots of fun.
True that. Gotta love the lyrics. Did this one help catalyze the back-to-the-land movement?
You could just take your Keester to PSD without all the drama. Sheesh.
Right? Kinda like when you're eating something and someone says "YUCK" and then "Enjoy" - just let me eat in peace! Or in this case, hear this FUN track....it's still a 9 for me...LLRP!!
My stars, you could just take your Keester to PSD without all the drama. Sheesh.

certainly me too - was a must at that time
how the HELL did I never hear this track before? (the answer is that I've never been a 'punk' fan, so a lot of the early punk or protopunk was not my thing, but jezz this is freaking AWESOME)
9 right off....awesome play BillG!
Released in 1970. Still applicable in 2018.
You spelled 2025 wrong
