"Still A Gorilla" lyrics

"Still A Gorilla"

I can tell a Bible
From a bottle of rye
I can tell the mote
From the mud in your eye
A hawk from a handsaw
Bamboo from a willow
Gorilla, gorilla

I know tragedy from thriller
I know emptiness from filler
I know bullshit when I smell a rat
I know it's not a vanilla

Marauding like Attila
Munching leaves like a caterpillar
You want King Kong
But you got Godzilla
I might be a monkey
But you might be a killer
You might be human, but you're still a gorilla
You're still a gorilla, you're still a gorilla

I know the forest
From the trees
I know Desdemona
From Demosthenes
You can have Charibis
I'll take my chances with Scylla
Gorilla, gorilla

I know tragedy from thriller
I know emptiness from filler
I know bullshit when I smell a rat
I know it's not a vanilla

Marauding like Attila
Munching leaves like a caterpillar
You want King Kong
But you got Godzilla
I might be a monkey
But you might be a killer
You might be human, but you're still a gorilla
You're still a gorilla, you're still a gorilla

I know tragedy from thriller
I know emptiness from filler
I know bullshit when I smell a rat
I know it's not a vanilla

Marauding like Attila
Smoking leaves like a caterpillar
You want King Kong
But you got Godzilla
I might be a monkey
But you might be a killer
You might be human, but you're still a gorilla
You're still a gorilla, you're still a gorilla
You're still a gorilla, you're still a gorilla
