King of the Jungle Songtext
von Bananarama

Ooh

Lurking, he knows your face
He waits and bides his time
Mind clocks your every move ′til you step out of line
Stalking streets by night, pushing guns by day
He knows it isn't right, but he wants to make his name

He′s working harder
Gotta make another, make another martyr

Hide your eyes, they're moving closer
But you know you're not allowed to look them in the face
Hide your eyes, ′cause you′re a loser
Before you even start to run, you've lost the race

You′ll never know the place until your time has come
It'll be a sunny day, until his work is done
Doesn′t care what pain you feel, can't see your mother′s tears
As she counts the cost of the life that's lost
And twenty wasted years

He thinks he's smarter
Gone and made another, made another martyr


Hide your eyes, they′re moving closer
But you know you′re not allowed to look them in the face
Hide your eyes, 'cause you′re a loser
Before you even start to run, you've lost the race

Who′s the king of the jungle?
Who's afraid of the jungle?
Who′s the king of the jungle now?

He's working harder
Gotta make another, make another martyr

Hide your eyes, they're moving closer
But you know you′re not allowed to look them in the face
Hide your eyes, ′cause you're a loser
Before you even start to run, you′ve lost the race

Ooh
Who's the king of the jungle?
Who′s afraid of the jungle?
Who's the king of the jungle now?

Hide your eyes, they′re moving closer (Who's the king of the jungle?)
(Who's afraid of the jungle?)
(Who′s the king of the jungle now?)
Hide your eyes, ′cause you're a loser (Who′s the king of the jungle?)
(Who's afraid of the jungle?)
(Who′s the king of the jungle now?)
