James Taylor - Gorilla lyrics

[Verse] He's got arms like legs, he's got hands on his feet He's got a nose like a doughnut, got a tendency to overeat He don't use tools or weapons, he don't eat meat He likes to stick to the bushes, tends to avoid the street But he rides my el dorado when he comes to town You know he's out there somewhere trying to track you down Look up in the sky, mama that's the one, yeah See the mighty profile block the noonday sun He comes from the heart of darkness a thousand miles from here That's the land where they understand what a woman might like to hear You know that he loves you baby for what you really are His love is a burning hot as a big old ten cent cigar Now most of y'all gave seen a gorilla in a cage at the local zoo He mostly sits around contemplating all the things that he'd prefer to do He dreams about the world outside from behind those bars of steel And no one seems to understand about the heartache the man can feel The people stop and stare but nobody seems to care It don't seem right somehow, it just don't seem fair. He's still a gorilla
