Love This Giant - St. Vincent lyrics

I Am An Ape
St. Vincent Song Lyrics

Artist: St. Vincent
Album: Love This Giant (2012)

In a garden
Stands a statue
Of the man who won the war.

His expression
Tender yearning
Every nation near and far.

Oh, sad and ancient father, sweet as honey, tough as leather
Running down the hill on christmas day.

I am an ape
I stand and wait
A masterpiece
A hairy beast
I move so fast
I take a chance
Come up close
I'm not a ghost.

Navigator
When you wake up
And you step outside your door.

Shoes and panties
Washed and folded
Taking off your dirty clothes.

This garden tells a story, amber close-up, faded glory
Running through the streets on christmas day.

I am an ape
I stand and wait
A masterpiece
A hairy beast
Try not to laugh
Just take a chance
I visited
Inside your head.

If you trespass,
In this garden
To a place you should not go.

If you step out
From the shadows
See the city fall in awe.

I am an ape
I stand and wait
A masterpiece
A hairy beast
No need to hide
Come inside
I will not last
I too shall pass.
