[Verse] Taylor was in a spaceship with his crew Woke up, spaceship crashed, now what to do? We lost a crew member damnit! We are on a strange planet Any signs of life here? [Verse 2] Taylor and his crew alone it would seem Took their space suits off to bathe in a stream But their clothing was stolen from the bush Left with nothing but an exposed tush Any signs of life here? [Chorus] It was the Planet of the Apes The forbidden zone, with the X shapes Monkeys chasing humans in the corn Taylor and his crew forlorn [Verse 3] Doctor Zaius warned you won't like what you see Landen got a monkey lobotomy He threatened Taylor with surgery Taylor knew he might never be free Only signs of monkey life here [Verse 4] So Taylor and Nova they did reach With Cornelius's horse on the beach When he looked up he said "Damn you!", not fair A destroyed Statue of Liberty hand in the air [Chorus] [Outro] So Planet with Apes was really earth Taylor's crew landed on the planet of their birth Lessons learned, the Ape planet does teach We could be Taylor pounding fists on the beach
