Purple People Eater, Eh? Well, here are the lyrics for "Ape call" ...........

.....from 1956, by Nervous Norvus:

Zoom, zoom, zoom, zoom
ze-ze-ze-zoom, zoom, zoom, zoom.

Back in history before time began
All the real cool cats had a solid plan
When they dug a nervous chick they all, to a man, went
Aaaaah - eee - yaaah!

Ape call, doodly - ah - bah
You wanna be cool man? Go ape!

The almighty Joe swingin through the trees
Was the king of everything that roosted in the leaves
But when he saw a girl ape, a-hangin in the breeze, he went
Aaaaah - eee - yaaah!

Ape call, doodly - ah - bah
You like to be hip boy? Go ape!

A big dinosaur was a long, tall lizard
He drift through the jungle like a slow blizzard
But when he got a double take at a lady lizard, he did
Aaaaah - eee - yaaah!

Ape call, doodly - ah - bah
You wanna be sharp cat? Go ape

A pterodactyl was a flyin fool
Just a... - I thought Id break
in and tell you what a pterodactyl was. Well, it was sort of a stork
lookin bat with sharp teeth that cruised around lookin for... say, we

havent changed a bit, have we cats?

A pterodactyl was a flyin fool
Just a breeze flappin daddy of the old school
But a mama dactyl could sure make him drool
Aaaaah - eee - yaaah!

Ape call, doodly - ah - bah
Dont be square Joe. Go ape!

Now old papa tiger was the boss of the Nile
Just a sport model cat with a solid style
He was old King Cool til a girl tiger smiled
Aaaaah - eee - yaaah!

Ape call, doodly - ah - bah
Bees warts daddio, go ape!

Adam was the first boy in the land
A big malaroony daddy with an iron hand
But when little Eva said, Hiya Man
Aaaaah - eee - yaaah!

Ape call, doodly - ah - bah
Dont be a cube, rube. Go ape!

So remember to ape!
Call today .... yeah!
Aaaaah - eee - yaaah!


•Reached #24 on the Billboard charts in August 1956
