But all around me everybody's multiplying, and they're walking round like flies, man So I'm no better than the animals sitting in the cages in the zoo, man 'cause 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 'cause 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 want to die in a nuclear war I want to 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 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. La la la la... In man's evolution he's created the city and the motor traffic rumble But give me half a chance and I'd be taking off my clothes and living in the jungle 'cause 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 apeman I'm an apeman I'm an ape, apeman Oh, I'm an apeman I'm a king-kong man I'm a voodoo man Oh, I'm an apeman I look out the window, but I can't see the sky The air pollution is a-fogging up my eyes I want to get out of this city alive And make like an apeman La la la la...

My makeup is dry and it cracks 'round my chin
I'm drowning my sorrows in whisky and gin The lion tamer's whip doesn't crack anymore The lions they won't bite and the tigers won't roar La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la So let's all drink to the death of a clown Won't someone help me to break up this crown Let's all drink to the death of a clown La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Let's all drink to the death of a clown The old fortune teller lies dead on the floor Nobody needs fortunes told anymore The trainer of insects is crouched on his knees And frantically looking for runaway fleas La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Let's all drink to the death of a clown So won't someone help me to break up this crown Let's all drink to the death of a clown La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Let's all drink to the death of a clown La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la |

You look out of your window,
Into the night. Could be rain, could be snow, But it can't feel as cold as you're feeling inside. And all of you friends are either married, vanished, Or just left alone. But that's no reason to just stop living. That's no excuse to just give in to a sad and lonely heart. Don't forget to dance, no, no, no, Don't forget to smile. Don't forget to dance, no, no, no, Forget it for a while. 'Cause darling, darling, I bet you danced a good one in your time. And if this were a party I'd really make sure the next one would be mine. Yes, you with the broken heart. Don't forget to dance, no, no, no, Don't forget to smile. Don't forget to dance, no, no, no, Forget it for a while. Don't forget to dance, no, no, no, Forget it for a while. You walk down the street And all the young punks whistle at you. A nice bit of old, Just goes to show what you can achieve with the right attitude. As you pass them by They whisper their remarks one to another, And you give them the eye Even that you know that you could be their mother. You do the thing you love the most. What separates you from the rest, And what you love to do the most? And when they ask me how you dance, I say that you dance real close. Don't forget to dance, no, no, no, Don't forget to dance. |

Standing in the middle of nowhere,
Wondering how to begin. Lost between tomorrow and yesterday, Between now and then. And now we're back where we started, Here we go round again. Day after day I get up and I say I better do it again. Where are all the people going? Round and round till we reach the end. One day leading to another, Get up, go out, do it again. Then it's back where you started, Here we go round again. Back where you started, Come on do it again. And you think today is going to be better, Change the world and do it again. Give it all up and start all over, You say you will but you don't know when. Then it's back where you started, Here we go round again. Day after day I get up and I say Come on do it again. The days go by and you wish you were a different guy, Different friends and a new set of clothes. You make alterations and affect a new pose, A new house, a new car, a new job, a new nose. But it's superficial and it's only skin deep, Because the voices in your head keep shouting in your sleep. Get back, get back. Back where you started, here we go round again, Back where you started, come on do it again. Back where you started, here we go round again, Day after day I get up and I say, do it again. Do it again. Day after day I get up and I say, come on do it again. |

Walter, remember when the world was young
And all the girls knew Walter's name? Walter, isn't it a shame the way our little world has changed? Do you remember, Walter, playing cricket in the thunder and the rain? Do you remember, Walter, smoking cigarettes behind your garden gate? Yes, Walter was my mate, But Walter, my old friend, where are you now? Walter's name. Walter, isn't it a shame the way our little world has changed? Do you remember, Walter, how we said we'd fight the world so we'd be free. We'd save up all our money and we'd buy a boat and sail away to sea. But it was not to be. I knew you then but do I know you now? Walter, you are just an echo of a world I knew so long ago If you saw me now you wouldn't even know my name. I bet you're fat and married and you're always home in bed by half-past eight. And if I talked about the old times you'd get bored and you'll have nothing more to say. Yes people often change, but memories of people can remain |

I met her in a club down in old Soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like Coca-Cola C-O-L-A, Cola She walked up to me and she asked me to dance I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola L-O-L-A, Lola La-la-la-la Lola Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine, oh my Lola La-la-la-la Lola Well, I'm not dumb but I can't understand Why she walked like a woman but talked like a man, oh my Lola La-la-la-la Lola La-la-la-la Lola Well, we drank champagne and danced all night Under electric candlelight She picked me up and sat me on her knee And said "Dear boy, won't you come home with me?" Well, I'm not the world's most passionate guy But when I looked in her eyes, well I almost fell for my Lola La-la-la-la Lola La-la-la-la Lola Lola La-la-la-la Lola La-la-la-la Lola I pushed her away I walked to the door I fell to the floor I got down on my knees Then I looked at her and she at me Well, that's the way that I want it to stay And I always want it to be that way for my Lola La-la-la-la Lola Girls will be boys and boys will be girls It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world, except for Lola La-la-la-la Lola Well, I left home just a week before And I'd never ever kissed a woman before But Lola smiled and took me by the hand And said "Dear boy, I'm gonna make you a man" Well, I'm not the world's most masculine man But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man And so is Lola La-la-la-la Lola La-la-la-la Lola Lola La-la-la-la Lola La-la-la-la Lola Lola La-la-la-la Lola La-la-la-la Lola Lola La-la-la-la Lola La-la-la-la Lola Lola La-la-la-la Lola La-la-la-la Lola Lola La-la-la-la Lola La-la-la-la Lola Lola La-la-la-la Lola La-la-la-la Lola |

They put a parking lot on a piece of land
Where the supermarket used to stand Before that, they put up a bowling alley On the site that used to be the local palais That's where the big bands used to come and play My sister went there on a Saturday Come dancing All her boyfriends used to come and call Why not come dancing? It's only natural Another Saturday, another date She would be ready, but she'd always make him wait In the hallway, in anticipation He didn't know the night would end up in frustration He'd end up blowing all his wages for the week All for a cuddle and a peck on the cheek Come dancing That's how they did it when I was just a kid And when they said come dancing My sister always did My sister should have come in at midnight And my mom would always sit up and wait It always ended up in a big row When my sister used to get home late Out of my window I could see them in the moonlight Two silhouettes saying good nights by the garden gate What are you doing out there? Come on! Are you gonna be out there all night? The day they knocked down the palais My sister stood and cried The day they knocked down the palais Part of my childhood died, just died Now I'm grown up and playing in a band And there's a car park where the palais used to stand My sister's married, and she lives on an estate Her daughters go out, now it's her turn to wait She knows they get away with things she never could But if I asked her, I wonder if she would Come dancing Come on, sister, have yourself a ball Don't be afraid to come dancing It's only natural Come dancing Just like the palais on a Saturday And all her friends would come dancing While the big bands used to play |

Hey, hey, hey...
Give the people what they want Well, it's been said before, the world is a stage A different performance with every age. Open the history book to any old page Bring on the lions and open the cage. Give the people what they want You gotta give the people what they want The more they get, the more they need And every time they get harder and harder to please The Roman promoters really did things right. They needed a show that would clearly excite. The attendance was sparse so they put on a fight Threw the Christians to the lions, sold out every night Give the people what they want You gotta give the people what they want The more they get, the more they need And every time they get harder and harder to please Give 'em lots of sex, perversion and rape Give 'em lots of violence, and plenty to hate Give the people what they want Give the people what they want When Olswald shot Kennedy, he was insane But still we watch the re-runs again and again We all sit glued while the killer takes aim "Hey Mom, there goes a piece of the president's brain!" Give the people what they want You gotta give the people what they want Blow out your brains, and do it right Make sure it's prime time and on a Saturday night. You gotta give the people what they want You gotta give the people what they want Give the people what they want Give the people what they want Give the people what they want |

Woke up in a panic,
Like somebody fired a gun I wish I could be dreaming, But the nightmare's just begun. There's flooding in the basement, There's water all around. There's woodworm in the attic And the ceiling just fell down. I'm in a state (state) Of confusion (whooooh). I'm in a state (state) Of confusion (whooooh). All the dirty dishes Are still in the kitchen sink. The tumble dryer's broken, Now the telly's on the blink. My girlfriend's packed her bags And moved out to another town. She couldn't stand the boredom When the video broke down. Don't know why I feel so bad. Is it the weather, or am I going mad? Don't know why I feel this way. I don't know whether I'm coming or I'm going, Can't cover up 'cause it's obviously showing. It's a state (state) Of confusion (whooooh). We're in a state (state) Of confusion (whooooh). I don't know whether I'm coming or I'm going. Should feel happy, should feel glad. I'm alive and it can't be bad, But back on planet Earth they shatter the illusion, The world's going 'round in a state of confusion. Standing on an island In the middle of the road. Traffic either side of me, Which way will I go? I should've stayed at home, I should have never come outside. Now I wish I never tried To cross the other side. I'm in a state (state) State of confusion (whooooh). It's a state (state) Of confusion (whooooh). Lyin' awake in a cold, cold sweat, Am I overdrawn, am I going in debt? It gets worse, the older that you get. No escape from the state of confusion I'm in. State of confusion I'm in. Whooooh |

I've been waiting for years to buy a brand new cadillac
But now that I've got one I want to send it right back I can't afford the gas to fill my luxury limousine But even if I had the dough no one's got no gasoline I went to my local dealer to see if he could set me straight He said there's a little gas going but I'd have to wait But he offered some red hot speed and some really high grade hash But a gallon of gas can't be purchased anywhere for any amount of cash I can score you some coke and some grade one grass But I can't get a gallon of gas I've got some downers some speed all the drugs that you need But I can't get a gallon of gas There's no more left to buy or sell There's no more oil left in the well A gallon of gas can't be purchased anywhere For any amount of cash two extra verses from long version: I love your body-work, but you're really no use How can I drive you when I got no juice? Because it's stuck in neutral and my engine's got no speed And the highways are deserted and the air smells unnaturally clean. It's got power-assisted overdrive and carpets on the floor, but it's parked out front just like a dead dinosaur. And I'll be paying off the bank for 45 years or more. It should go 100 miles an hour, but it's never moved away from my door. Who needs a car and a seven-forty-seven When you can't buy a gallon of gas Who needs a highway, an airport or a jet When you can't get a gallon of gas There's no more left to buy or sell There's no more oil left in the well A gallon of gas can't be purchased anywhere For any amount of cash You can't buy a gallon of gas |

On reflection, it was not all wine on the wall
It was not all cuts and bruises Or the pulling out of hair And the bloodying of nose And the tearing off of clothes, although It was really animal, truly animal There were times when there was absolute compassion in the air Though it was really animal, truly animal It could not compare to times we cared And were in control and less emotional While the intellect controls the spiritual The animal respects what's natural Ying and yang control man's actions And both extremes are a natural reaction It was really animal, truly animal, Well there were times when there was absolute compassion in the air On reflection it was not all crash and bang Broken bottles and abuse Sometimes there were sunsets on the sands Holding onto caring hands But there were vampire fangs As the angels sang It was ying and yang, oh yeah It was truly natural, though it was really animal In a sense it fell into a truly natural romance Oh yeah, It was really animal, truly animal There were times when there was absolute compassion in the air True love, true love, true love is really animal |

In the back of a record rack
There's a old double pack Twelve inches and black With an old crumpled cover But every track is stacked And it takes me back To the one who caused this melancholy mood And every single groove Cuts me to the bone Yeah, she rocks me to the bone I took her back to my bachelor flat While the stereo played for two She unwrapped her gift And played me a riff And said, "this old record was just made for you" Then we danced to songs of passion and The singer's velvet tones On the gramaphone While the record played She rocks me to the bone Knocks me to the bone Those those rock n' roll romantic songs Played all summer long And she rocks me to the bone Knocks me to the bone. Yeah, she rocks me to the bone Yeah, she rocks me to the bone In dreams she's smiling in slow motion Devouring all of my emotion Angels singing rock 'n' roll While demons take away my soul Voices sound, her image fades Every time that record plays She rocks me to the bone Knocks me to the bone In my back room there's an old 45 That we played all summer long Shakin the beams so loud it covered up the screams When lover's harmony went oh so wrong And in every word emotion is torn And blood flows down the drain Like she opened up a vein And cut me to the bone Yeah, she rocks me to the bone And now i'm just a prisoner In that stereo Hi-Fi jail The needle pierced just like a nail As she rocks me to the bone Knocks me to the bone Do do do do do do do She rocks me to the bone Yeah, she rocks me to the bone Yeah, she rocks me to the bone |
