It's A Jungle Out There
by Harry Nilsson
While they were walking through the garden One thing I must explain - before we go much farther I know you'd like a bright new dress With a bright new yellow linin' But every time you want one darlin' I got to fight a lion. And it's a jungle out there And it's a jungle out there There ain't no way around it At least I've never found it. It's a jungle out there It's a jungle out there Now way back in the city Where the city people smile Whenever they want a new pair of shoes They don't kill a crocodile And when the nighttime falls around them They stay in their hotels But out here darlin' When the nighttime comes There's nothing to do but yell 'Cause it's a jungle out there You better say a prayer Even if they eat you And eventually they will. It's a jungle out there It's a jungle out there One day Tarzan said to Jane I want to talk to you about the boy He's acting very strange lately He thinks a tools a toy Why only yesterday While I was out there fixin' up the vine He said "dad I'm gonna take a swing" But he grabbed a hold of my vine - ow! It's a jungle out there Hey you better beware There ain't no way around it At least I've never found it. It's a jungle out there It's a jungle out there Now the moral of the story is If you end up out there too. Just think of all them snakes You might have snaken up on you, But on the other hand my darlin' You don't have to care 'cause no matter how far No matter how long No matter how cold or fair High or low Up or down It's still a jungle out there It's a jungle out there It's a jungle out there There ain't no way around it At least I've never found it. It's a jungle out there |
