Warren Zevon - Gorilla, You're a Desperado lyrics
[Warren Zevon - Gorilla, You're a Desperado lyrics]
Big gorilla at the LA 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 meantime, keep your profile low
Gorilla, you're a desperado
He built a house on an acre of land
(Ooh ah ooh) he called it Villa Gorilla
Now I hear he's getting divorced (Ooh ah ooh)
Laying low at L'Ermitage of course
Then the ape grew very depressed (Ooh ah ooh)
Went through transactional analysis
He plays racquetball and runs in the rain
(Ooh ah ooh)
Still he's shackled to a platinum chain
Big gorilla at the LA Zoo
Snatched the glasses right off my face
Took the keys to my BMW
Left me here to take his place, hey!
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 meantime, keep your profile low
Gorilla, you're a desperado
He built a house on an acre of land
(Ooh ah ooh) he called it Villa Gorilla
Now I hear he's getting divorced (Ooh ah ooh)
Laying low at L'Ermitage of course
Then the ape grew very depressed (Ooh ah ooh)
Went through transactional analysis
He plays racquetball and runs in the rain
(Ooh ah ooh)
Still he's shackled to a platinum chain
Big gorilla at the LA Zoo
Snatched the glasses right off my face
Took the keys to my BMW
Left me here to take his place, hey!
