Tarzan Lyrics by RuPaul

Essential, Vol. 3

1985

Oooh Tarzan, the ape man
Swing through the jungle
Tarzan, the ape man
Swing through the trees

Love is getting hot here in the city
My bedroom is a trash can, it's not very pretty
I wanna be like Tarzan swinging on a vine
Flying through the city having a good ti-e-i-e-i-e-ime

Tarzan, the ape man (Tarzan)
Swing through the jungle, oh oh
Tarzan, the ape man (Tarzan)
Swing through the trees

Live in a penthouse where the jungle is gone
He the man who's got a funky beat on
Don't mess with the man or he'll feed you to the lions
Crunch you down, beat you up
And then he'll leave you cryi-e-i-e-i-e-ing

Tarzan, the ape man (Tarzan)
Swing through the jungle, oh oh
Tarzan, the ape man (Tarzan)
Swing through the trees

Tarzan, the ape man (Tarzan)
Swing through the jungle, oh oh
Tarzan, the ape man (Tarzan)
Swing through the trees, oh, oh, ah

[Jungle animal sounds]

Wooooo ha ha ha

Tarzan, the ape man (Tarzan)
Swing through the jungle, oh oh
Tarzan, the ape man (Tarzan)
Swing through the trees

Tarzan, the ape man (Tarzan)
Swing through the jungle, oh oh
Tarzan, the ape man (Tarzan)
Swing through the trees, oh oh
