Bananarama - King of the Jungle lyrics

Lurking, he knows your face
He wait's and bides his time
Mind clocks your every move 'till
You step out of line
Stalking streets by night
Pushing guns by day he knows it isn't right
But he wants to make his name

He's working harder
Gotta make another, make another martyr

Hide your eyes, they're moving closer
But, you know you're not allowed to
Look them in the face
Hide your eyes, 'cause you're a loser
Before you even start to run
You've lost the race

You'll never know the place until
Your time has come
It'll be a sunny day, until his work is done
Doesn′t care what pain you feel
Can't see your mother's tears
As she counts the cost of
The life that's lost and twenty wasted years

He thinks he's smarter
Gone and made another, made another martyr

Hide your eyes, they're moving closer
But, you know you're not allowed to
Look them in the face
Hide your eyes, 'cause you're a loser
Before you even start to run
You've lost the race

Who's the king of the jungle?
Who's afraid of the jungle?
Who's the king of the jungle now?

He's working harder
Gotta make another, make another martyr

Hide your eyes, they're moving closer
But, you know you're not allowed to
Look them in the face
Hide your eyes, 'cause you're a loser
Before you even start to run
You've lost the race

Who's the king of the jungle?
Who's afraid of the jungle?
Who's the king of the jungle now?

Hide your eyes, they′re moving closer
(Who's the king of the jungle?)
(Who's afraid of the jungle?)
(Who's the king of the jungle now?)
Hide your eyes, 'cause you're a loser
(Who's the king of the jungle?)
(Who's afraid of the jungle?)
(Who's the king of the jungle now?)
