Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Jungle boy don't fear
Jungle boy come near

Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Go join your gang, yeah
See your lover going crazy

Jungle boy I view
Jungle boy come through

In the jungle, I love to rumble
He's the fat guy, he's the bad guy
When the city turns to rubble

Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Go join your gang, yeah
See your lover going crazy

Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Go join your gang, yeah
See your lover going crazy

Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Go join your gang, yeah
See your lover going crazy

Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Go join your gang, yeah
See your lover going crazy

Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Go join your gang, yeah
See your lover going crazy

Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Go join your gang, yeah
See your lover going crazy

In the jungle, I love to rumble
With my boyfriend
He's the fat now, he's the bad now
He understands

When the city turns to rubble
Ooh the trouble

See your lover going crazy
So let your body do the talking
See your lover going crazy
I love jungle boy, I love jungle boy

Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Go join your gang, yeah
See your lover going crazy

Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Go join your gang, yeah
See your lover going crazy

Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Go join your gang, yeah
See your lover going crazy

Sir Jungle, Sir Jungle
Go join your gang, yeah
See your lover going crazy

In the jungle, I love the rumble
He's the fat now, he's the bad now
When the city turns to rubble
He's the fat now, he's the bad now
When the city turns to rubble

See your lover going crazy
I love jungle boy, I love jungle boy

    Song Comparison

    This song is based on a song from the South African group, the Mahotella Queens. The song - Umculo Kawupheli (No End To Music)- can be found on the compilation "Soweto Never Sleeps: Classic Women Zulu Jive." Bow Wow Wow takes the original lyrics and phoentically transposes them (if that makes sense?) into English. This either explains why the lyrics make no sense whatsoever, OR that Bow Wow Wow are complete geniuses.

    These lyrics are not accurate. You have done a great disservice to a magnificent song...

    <<Sir Jungle, sir Jungle, sir Jungle, sir Jungle>> SEE JUNGLE, SEE JUNGLE...CITY ALL OVER GO APE CRAZY! (it was the name of the album - DUH !)

    Many other wrongly heard lyrics here. Kierra did a half-baked job - sorry but it's true.

    Those who are not worthy of citing the timeless prophecies of our beloved Annabella Lwin should not attempt to do so.

    McLaren ripped this music off wholesale from the Mahotella Queens - the dirty rat! (He stole that song, plus lots of others.) Not the band's fault, I still think they were all great musicians who worked good together as a band.

    MM always loved controversy. There's a version of this song whose lyrics go "Jungle Boy don't fear / the laws are different here / Jungle Boy come here / the laws are different here" - McLaren could be such a creep!

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Album art
Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
