David Dundas - Guy The Gorilla

Guy the Gorilla
Has been locked up for ages
Has been living forever in Regent's Park cages
They used to allow him the freedom of bars
Then they covered him over with double-thick glass
Poor Guy (ooh), poor Guy

He used to be quite happy spitting at faces
And doing his act for the humane races
But the public weren't happy with his punk attitude
They thought he was dirty and certainly crude
Poor Guy (ooh), Poor Guy

But, he's still (still) somebody's baby
Still somebody's baby (still somebody's baby)
Still somebody's one and only love
Yes, he's still (still) somebody's baby
Still somebody's baby (still somebody's baby)
His mother still waits by the zookeeper's gates up above

But, Shirley, his lover belonged to perform
But he couldn't take cover from the food being thrown
So they took her away, and later she died
Guy just couldn't see the funny side
Poor Guy (ooh), Poor Guy
But, he's still (still) somebody's sweetheart
Still somebody's sweetheart (still somebody's sweetheart)
Still somebody's one and only love
Yes, he's still (still) somebody's sweetheart
Still somebody's sweetheart (still somebody's sweetheart)
But, Shirley still waits by the zookeeper's gates in the sky

He's still (still) somebody's sweetheart
Still somebody's sweetheart (still somebody's sweetheart)
Still somebody's one and only Guy
Yes, he's still (still) somebody's sweetheart
Still somebody's sweetheart (still somebody's sweetheart)
Shirley still waits by the zookeeper's gates in the sky

He's still (still) somebody's sweetheart
Still somebody's sweetheart (still somebody's sweetheart)
And now that he's gone, hes no longer alone
With Guy (poor Guy)
