Harry Nilsson - It's a Jungle Out There lyrics

One day Tarzan said to Jane while they were walking through the garden 'One thing I must explain before we go much farther' 'I know you'd like a bright new dress with a bright new yellow linin' 'But every time you want one darlin', I got to fight a lion' And it's a jungle out there It's a jungle out there There ain't no way around it At least I've never found it It's a jungle out there It's a jungle out there Way back in the city, where the city people smile Whenever they need a new pair of shoes, they don't k** no crocodile And when the nighttime falls around them, they stay in their hotels But out here, darlin', when the night time comes, there's nothin' to do but yell 'Cause it's a jungle out there You better say a prayer Even if they eat you And eventually they will It's a jungle out there, ooh, you know One day Tarzan said to Jane : 'I want to talk to you about the boy' 'He's been actin' very strange lately, he thinks a tool's a toy' 'Why only yesterday while I was out there fixin' up the vine' 'He said: 'Dad, I'm gonna take a swing' - but he grabbed a hold of my vine, ow It's a jungle out there Hey, you better beware There ain't no way around it At least I've never found it It's a jungle out there It's a jungle out there Now the moral of this story is if you end up out there too Think of all them snakes you might have snaken up on you But on the other hand, my darlin', you don't have to care 'Cause no matter how far, no matter how long, no matter how cold or fair High or low, up or down, it's still a jungle out there It's a jungle out there It's a jungle out there There ain't no way around it At least I've never found it 'Cause it's a jungle out there
