| A/ / / / | / / / / | I think I'm Aso - phisticated,
'Cause I'm living my life like a goEod homo sapien, Esus4 E
But aAll around me everybody's multiplying,
And they're waElking 'round like flies, man, Esus4 E
So ID'm no better than the animals sitting in their caAges in the zoo, man,Asus4 A
A E (E7) A
'Cause com - pared to the flowers, and the birds, and the trees, I am an ape - man!
I think I'm sAo educated, and I'm so civilised, 'cause I'm a stErict vegetarian,Esus4 E
But with the oAver population, and inflation, and starvation,
And the crEazy poli - tici - ans, Esus4 E
I doDn't feel safe in this world no more, I dAon't want to die in a nuclear war,
A E (E7) A
I want to sail away to a distant shore, and make like an ape - man!

IA'm an ape - man, I'm an ape, ape - man, oh, I'm an aEpe - man, Esus4 E
I'm a KiAng Kong man, I'm a vood - doo man, oh, I'm an aEpe - man, Esus4 E
'Cause com - paDred to the sun that sits in the sky,
Com - paAred to the clouds as they roll by, compared to the bugs,
A E (E7) A
And the spiders, and flies, I am an ape - man!

A In man's evolution he has created the cEity, and the motor traffic rumble,
A But, give me half a chance, and I'd be taking Eoff my clothes, and living in the jungle,
'Cause the oDnly time that I feel at ease, is swiAnging up and down in a coconut tree,
A E (E7) A
Oh, what a life of luxury to be like an ape - man!

I lDook out the window, but I can't see the sky,
The aAir pollution is a - fogging up my eyes,
A E (E7) A
I want to get out of this city alive, and make like an ape - man!
