A I think I'm sophisticated, E 'Cause I'm living my life like a good Esus4 E homo sapien, A But all around me everybody's multiplying, E Esus4 E And they're walking 'round like flies, man, D So I'm no better than the animals, A Asus4 A Sitting in their cages in the zoo, man, A 'Cause compared to the flowers, and the birds, and the trees, E E7 A I am an apeman! I think I'm so educated and I'm so civilized 'Cause 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 A I'm an ape man, I'm an ape, ape - man, E Esus4 E Oh, I'm an apeman, A I'm a King Kong man, I'm a vooddoo man, E Esus4 E Oh, I'm an apeman, D 'Cause compared to the sun that sits in the sky, A Compared to the clouds as they roll by, A Compared to the bugs, and the spiders, and flies, E E7 A I am an apeman!
