Take me where the lions roar
Where the monkeys swing and the bluebirds soar
Troops of hairy chimpanzees
Climbing up and down the trees
Show me where the tigers sleep
Where the seahorse swims and the clownfish leap
Cliffs of rock and clear blue lakes
Kangaroos and rattlesnakes
Take me where the lions roar
Trapped behind these city walls
Darkness never falls
The stars are burning bright
But I can’t see the light
Underneath the evening skies
Only buildings rise
Faces set in steel
Hammer out a deal
Trapped behind these city walls
Take me where no road can lead
Where the porpoise play and the vipers feed
Hatchlings in a nest
Show me where the panther springs
Where the sparrow drifts on golden wings
Take me where no road can lead
Take me where the lions roar
Where the monkeys swing and the bluebirds soar
Troops of hairy chimpanzees
Climbing up and down the trees
Take me where the lions roar
Take me where the lions roar
