I can see some things in the first verse, but later on it goes over my head.

Give me some hints, please.

: This is a song that I enjoy, it's called "Bungle in the Jungle" by Jethro Tull. It's a very wonderful song. It has great depth as well.

: "Bungle in the Jungle" by Jethro Tull

: Walking through forests of palm tree apartments -
: Scoff at the monkeys who live in their dark tents
: Down by the waterhole - drunk every Friday -
: Eating their nuts - saving their raisins for Sunday.
: Lions and Tigers who wait in the shadows -
: They're fast but they're lazy, and sleep in green meadows.

: Well, let's Bungle in the Jungle well, that's all right by me. Yes!
: I'm a tiger when I want love, but I'm a snake if we disagree.

: Just say a word and the boys will be right there
: With claws at your back to send a chill through the night air.
: Is it so frightening to have me at your shoulder?
: Thunder and lightning couldn't be bolder.
: I'll write on your tombstone, "I thank you for dinner."
: This game that we animals play is a winner.
: Well, let's Bungle in the Jungle well, that's all right by me. Yes!
: I'm a tiger when I want love, but I'm a snake if we disagree.

: [Instrumental]

: The rivers are full of crocodile nasties
: And He who made kittens put snakes in the grass.
: He's a lover of life but a Player of Pawns -
: Yes, the King on His Sunset lies waiting for dawn
: To light up His Jungle as play is resumed.
: The monkeys seem willing to strike up the tune.

: Well, let's Bungle in the Jungle well, that's all right by me. Yes!
: I'm a tiger when I want love, but I'm a snake if we disagree.
: Yes, let's Bungle in the Jungle well, that's all right by me. Yes!
: Well, I'm a tiger when I want love, but I'm a snake if we disagree.
: Let's Bungle in the Jungle well, that's all right by me. Yes!
: Well, I'm a tiger when I want love, but I'm a snake if we disagree.
