I Am an Ape

歌詞

In a garden, stands a statue Of the man who won the war His expression, tender yearning Every nation near and far Oh sad and ancient father Sweet as honey, tough as leather Running down the hill on Christmas Day I am an ape, I stand and wait A masterpiece, a hairy beast I move so fast, but take a chance And come up close, I'm not a ghost Navigator, when you wake up And you step outside your door Shoes and panties, washed and folded Taking off your dirty clothes This garden tells a story Amber close up, faded glory Running through the streets on Christmas day I am an ape, I stand and wait A masterpiece, a hairy beast Try not to laugh, just take a chance I visited, inside your head If you trespass in this garden To a place you should not go If you step out, from the shadows See the city far below I am an ape, I stand and wait A masterpiece, a hairy beast No need to hide, come on inside I will not last, I too shall pass
