Iggy Pop - African Man lyrics

[Iggy Pop - African Man lyrics]

All I want to do, monkey see, monkey do

I eat a monkey for breakfast
I eat a skunk for lunch i live in the bush
I eat with my fingers
I don’t use no knife and fork
'Cause I live in the jungle
I live in the jungle

I know each tigers i know about lions
I know about the elephants
I know about everything that
Lives in the jungle

I’m an African Man i’m an African Man
I’m an African Man and I do what I can
I do what I can

That bird is so strange in a blue Kenya sky
It’s a dirty plague
Go home, you dirty white man
Go home you, go home, you dirty white man
I hate ya, I hate the white man
Wanna go back to the jungle
Again where I came what do ya say?

It’s good in the jungle
It’s good in the jungle
It’s good in the jungle i know lions
I know tigers i know elephants
I’m an African Man i don’t eat with my fork
I use no knife i eat with my finger

Live in the bush i live in the bush
I live in the bush
And I’m gonna stomp like a gorilla
Here I beat my chest uh ooh ah
Live in bush

Pretty tiger tiger rag
I know lions eat with fingers
I live in bush i live in bush
I live in bush i live in bush
Look up at blue sky blue sky of Kenya
Airplane up high
But that airplane is flying too low
That white man’s airplane is flying too low
Sometimes things change too slow
