I Am an Ape |
| 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 |
| I take a chance |
| 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 fall in awe |
| I am an ape |
| I stand and wait |
| A masterpiece |
| A hairy beast |
| No need to hide |
| Come inside |
| I will not last |
| I too shall pass |
