Getting ready to sail out to sea
Put an ad in the paper seeking
A single white female who likes monkeys
Can't forget the bait-thing beauty
Yes, I covered that up quite nicely
Smithers, we all know what you think
Hear the natives with the "Homer, Homer" chant
Could be a giant ape or a tourist trap
Either way we are going in to land
Translating what the chief is shouting
Saying that we wouldn't dream
Of sacrificing the blue haired lady
Gonna take a trip to Ape Island
Try to catch an ape that's really big
Wish we were going to Candy Apple Island
They've still got apes but they're just not so big
I was strolling through the gas one day
Smithers didn't live to get his raise
We put King Homer on a platform on a stage
I called him the eighth wonder of the world
But he had to go and kidnap that girl
I am dreading the reviews, that's for sure
Then he went and found a building to climb
But he was taking his sweet time
The planes had to refuel or they can't fly
And the only thing that died was his career
Like when Al Jolson climbed the Chrysler
Now, he's eating his new bride's father
Gonna take a trip to Ape Island
Try to catch an ape that's really big
Wish we were going to Candy Apple Island
They've still got apes but they're just not so big
Gonna take a trip to Ape Island
Gonna take a trip to Ape Island
Gonna take a trip to Ape Island
Wish we were going to Candy Apple Island
