The ape was a metaphor
I'm not really sure what for
Maybe it was about how life's not a piece of cake
It's more like being beaten to death by an ape

No, that's not right, it was really about how
The pressure of the world is beating me down
Maybe the ape represents society
And how we need to fight in order to be free

Maybe the ape is my primitive roots
Maybe the ape is in cahoots
With the onеs who rule the world
Maybe thе ape stole my girl

Maybe the ape is a centrist
Never looking for a fight
Or maybe the ape is a leftist
Or maybe he's on the right

Or maybe he's just ape-political
Maybe he's just ape-political
Maybe I spent sixty dollars on this joke
Maybe he's just ape-political
Maybe he's just apolitical
