Bilingual
They were sitting down to supper, the gorilla family
There was a knocking on the door and they hollered, "Come on in!"
We're from the revolution and we stand for liberty
Freedom and liberation for all your family
Gorilla he said, "You got me and my whole family!"
They fought deep in the mountains and they fought in the jungles
They made them the heroes of the struggle for liberation
Gorilla man, they made him head of foreign policy
I wish I had some knowledge of this foreign policy
I wish I had some knowledge of this foreign policy
ย
Beaten, beating around, beating around the bush
Beaten, beating around, beating around the bush
Beaten, beating around, beating around the bush
Beaten, beating around, beating around the bush

They were sitting down to supper, the gorilla family
There was a knocking on the door and they hollered, "Come on in!"
We're from the revolution and we stand for liberty
Freedom and liberation for all humanity
Here is an invitation from the embassy
They got plenty invitations from all the embassies
They built them a villa and they gave him a limousine
Gorilla was called a traitor to the revolution
Now they got him in jail and you can hear him scream!

Beaten, beating around, beating around the bush
Beaten, beating around, beating around the bush
Beaten, beaten, beating around, beating around the bush
Beaten, beating around, beating around the bush

I wish I had some knowledge of this foreign policy
I wish I had some knowledge of this foreign policy
I wish I had some knowledge of this foreign policy
ย
Beaten, beating around, beating around the bush
Beaten, beating around, beating around the bush
Be beaten, beaten, beating around, beating around the bush
Beaten, beaten around, beaten around the bush
