Apes-Ma - Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band

Apes-Ma, Apes-Ma

Remember when you were young Apes-Ma?

And you used to break out of your cage?

Well you know that you’re not

Strong enough to do that anymore now

And Apes-Ma… The little girl that

Named you years ago died now

And you’re older Apes-Ma

Remember when she named you

And it was in the paper Apes-Ma?

Apes-Ma, Apes-Ma

You’re eating too much

And going to the bathroom too much Apes-Ma

And Apes-Ma, your cage isn’t getting any bigger Apes-Ma
