Bungle In The Jungle

Walking through forests of palm tree apartments ---

Scoff at the monkeys who live in their dark tents

Down by the waterhole --- drunk every friday ---

Eating their nuts --- saving their raisins for sunday.

Lions and tigers who wait in the shadows ---

They're fast but they're lazy, and sleep in green meadows.

Let's bungle in the jungle --- well, that's all right by me.

I'm a tiger when i want love,

But i'm a snake if we disagree.



Just say a word and the boys will be right there:

With claws at your back to send a chill through the night air.

Is it so frightening to have me at your shoulder?

Thunder and lightning couldn't be bolder.

I'll write on your tombstone, ``i thank you for dinner.''

This game that we animals play is a winner.



Let's bungle in the jungle --- well, that's all right by me.

I'm a tiger when i want love,

But i'm a snake if we disagree.



The rivers are full of crocodile nasties

And he who made kittens put snakes in the grass.

He's a lover of life but a player of pawns ---

Yes, the king on his sunset lies waiting for dawn

To light up his jungle

As play is resumed.

The monkeys seem willing to strike up the tune.
