Lyrics for Song: Gorilla, You're A Desperado
Lyrics for Album: Bad Luck Streak In Dancing School



Big gorilla at the L.A. Zoo

Snatched the glasses right off my face

Took the keys to my BMW

Left me here to take his place



I wish the ape a lot of success

I'm sorry my apartment's a mess

Most of all I'm sorry if I made you blue

I'm betting the gorilla will, too



They say Jesus will find you wherever you go

But when He'll come looking for you, they don't know

In the mean time, keep your profile low

Gorilla, you're a desperado



He built a house on an acre of land

He called it Villa Gorilla Now

I hear he's getting divorced

Laying low at L'Ermitage, of course



Then the ape grew very depressed

Went through Transactional Analysis

He plays racquetball and runs in the rain

Still he's shackled to a platinum chain



Big gorilla at the L.A. Zoo

Snatched the glasses right off my face

Took the keys to my BMW

Left me here to take his place
