Текст песни Bungle In The Jungle, Jethro Tull

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.
