lyrics

Boy I hope you're happy now cause this world's swinging on a string
You've got tied to your little finger, swaying, pull it back and forth again
And I'm sure that you don't want lose yourself and fall into the
Cracks between the city streets, big bang beat, well don't you know
That they told you it would be so sweet,

The Lion in his den is roaring, he's King, keeping all the kitties out
Gorillas got his fist a beating, his thing -- thunder claps are crashing loud
Man I hope you're hearing how this jungle is calling out to bring you down
All the while sing it louder, prouder, while it comes a swingin' 'round

Boy you know you're in the right to try to do your thing and do it right,
And you really should be glad you, had to
