Mechanical Ape! Lyrics

Well here I am underground
Waiting in my metal fortress of sound
Lets get it on
But its all ready now
robot gorilla's how
A million pounds of steel
Fuzzy dice and steering wheel
Woah, I know a way to make an escape
And get away
Woah
there can be no mistake
About the greatest ape of all
One man stands as the lone magician
Sending in plays to the ape transmission now
who can face
Who can face
Who can face the unbelievable
Mechanical Ape?
Who can face
Who can face
Who can face the unbelievable Mechanical Ape?
And I say, woah
oh-oh-oh(Mechanical Ape!)
Woah-oh-oh-oh (Mechanical Ape!)
Woah-oh-oh-oh (Mechanical Ape!)
You cannot deface the
Mechanical Ape
Woah-oh-oh-oh
So flip a switch, turn it on
Make it run through all the fire and guns
And make it punch some- wha!!
We will fight our way out
Monkey bit our way out
Point the mouse, render
And never surrender!
W-w-w-way to go!
N-n-n-Not too slow!
Get up get up get
Lets go!
Get up Get up get
Lets go!
Oh oh oh oh

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
