Lyrics
"Like Donkey Kong"
© 2011 Capers Simmons
VERSE I
This city grows, these buildings
Unfinished, still they're standing
Taller than the tallest trees of my own native land.
I don't belong in this world, but
I mean no harm to this girl,
And yet my presence makes you fear my mighty hands.
CHORUS
At the top of a tower I will stand.
I will not cower before Man
At the sight of the hammer in your hand.
You climb the ladders in your way,
I aim these barrels in your face,
For I have made this place my throne.
Let's get it on like Donkey Kong.
VERSE II
You'd have me caged like an animal.
You'll face my rage, like a cannonball
I'll throw these fists and I'll protect the one I love.
Jump, man, I'll tell you how high.
I land my hand and you'll fly
Right off this skyscraper and shatter down below.
~ CHORUS ~ SOLO ~ CHORUS ~
