The Great Apes

[Verse 1] She's a box car rollin' by Like a black star in the sky She's a failure once or twice Like a trailer spinnin' out upon dizzy ice [Pre-Chorus] Flowers fly when we grow old Snakes get high, or so I'm told She's an eagle out on the road Like my favorite Beatle everyone bought and sold [Chorus] All of my love and half my kisses Superstar don't do the dishes I just want the great apes to be free Come on now, you lazy cowboy Heads or tails, but not right now, boy I just want the great apes to be free [Verse 2] She's a rain bird on the prowl Like an urge to be yourself that you won't allow She's a forest that we burned Just a blueprint for a life that we had never learned [Pre-Chorus] Flowers fly when we grow old Snakes get high, or so I'm told She's a lynch mob on the street Take another step and I will kill the beat [Chorus] All of my love and half my kisses Superstar don't do the dishes I just want the great apes to be free Come on now, you lazy cowboy Heads or tails, but not right now, boy I just want the great apes to be free [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] She's a bus stop, glockenspiel She's a simulation life that you thought was real She's an image that we blurred It's a pixelated panther, now let it purr [Chorus] All of my love and half my kisses Superstar don't do the dishes I just want the great apes to be free Come on now, you lazy cowboy Heads or tails, but not right now, boy I just want the great apes to be free I just want the great apes to be free I just want the great apes to be free
