I think I'm sophisticated 'cos I'm living my life
Like a good homo sapiens
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
Because 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
And I'm a strict vegetarian
And 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 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
But 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
Oh, 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
Oh, I'm an apeman
But 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
And I don't wanna die in a nuclear war
I wanna sail away to a distant shore
And make like an apeman
