Harry the Hairy Ape
作詞:Ray Stevens
Well, a strange thing happened the other night You won't believe it, but I swear it's true Harry the hairy ape made his escape From the city zoo
And under cover of darkness he made his way To the middle of the municipal park And he hid in the bushes and waited for somebody to come Walkin' along by his self in the dark
Then along come somebody not suspectin' nothin' Harry jump out of the bushes all of a sudden Beat on his chest jump up and down and he say
Which is Harry-Ape talk for 'Boo, I betcha I scared you, ha ha'
Waaa! Scared that poor cat so bad His eyes bugged out his hair turned white And he ran off through the municipal park Screamin' and hollerin', tearin' up the shrub and diggin' up the lawn
And knock down the 'Keep off the grass' sign Run through the hurricane fence Fell into the municipal swimming pool And drowned his self
Well, Harry thought this was the funniest thing That he had ever seen And he laughed, jumped back in the bushes And got ready to do it again
The next guy to come along was the near-sighted local DJ Just boppin' down the sidewalk on his way to work With a box of records on his arm That he was gonna play もっと沢山の歌詞は ※ Mojim.com
So here he come, not suspectin' nothin' Harry jump out of the bushes all of a sudden Beat on his chest, jump up and down and he say
Which is Harry-Ape talk for 'Boo, I betcha I scared you, ha ha'
Man, that radio announcer didn't even bat an eye He was so near sighted, he thought Harry was a Rock n' Roll singer So he gave him the old glad hand, slapped him on the back Smiled and say, 'Don't worry, baby, I'm gonna play the record'
And then he say, 'Bye' bopped on off down the sidewalk Every 4 or 5 steps he'd stop and do the little mash potatoes Harry just stood there, watchin' 'til he got out of sight Man, he didn't know what to think, I mean it really shook him up
And he run back to his cage as fast as he can go And jump up on his little swing Put both hands over his eyes And didn't look for 3 hours and 45 minutes
But that's not the end of our story No! Here's what happened
Well, the DJ played Harry's record, what record? Shut up! It was a hit and he became a star He got him some tight britches, got him a manager Went on a promotion tour, combed his hair back
And took up playin' the guitar And every Sunday afternoon you can go and see Harry at the zoo And the girls'll scream and he'll sit on his swing And pick and sing his hit record for you
