Phones, Machines And King Kong

They shot him down
 They shot him down
 They thought he was a monster
 But he was the king
 They came to his island
 And they brought her with them
 They wanted to get his picture
 But they were surprised by his enormous size
 And when he saw the woman
 He took her without question
 Because after all
 He was the king
 And he loved the woman
 He loved the way she looked
 But she wouldn't stop
 Her screaming
 But he loved the woman
 And he fought a Tyrannosaurus Rex
 It was a bloody battle
 But he fought it for his woman
 And he climbed up a mountain
 And he looked around
 Some kind of forest
 With all those dinosaurs
 And he stripped his woman
 He stripped her bare
 But there was a pterodactyl
 There!
 And then a hero
 Came and took his woman
 And they fell off the mountain
 Into some water
 And then later
 He came looking for his woman
 But they were waiting
 And they threw a bomb
 And they tied him
 And they took him across the ocean
 And they chained him
 And put him in the show
 But when he saw his woman
 He broke loose
 And everyone fled in terror
 And he was looking for her
 And he overturned the train
 He was looking in the street
 And then he found her in her apartment
 And He climbed up the Empire State building
 It was like a phallic Symbol
 And he took his woman
 To the top of that towering temple
 And he climbed up and looked around
 Some kind of city
 With all those skyscrapers
 And all the cars
 Just him and his screaming woman
 They were finally alone
 He loved his woman
 You could see it in his eyes
 His great big eyes
 He loved his woman
 From the moment he saw her
 He was all choked up inside
 But when the airplanes came
 He was soon to die
 But he hung on long enough to set his woman down
 And make sure
 She was safe
 And as the bullets pierced
 He looked at her so sincere
 Before he fell
 Because he loved his woman
 They shot him down
 They shot him down
 They thought he was a monster
 But he was the king
 Who killed the monkey
 Who killed the monkey
 'Twas beauty
 That killed the beast
 And Willis O'Brien died
 A tragic death
 There wasn't much
 That he had left
 And Ray Harryhousen said
 That when Willis died
 That's when the king
 Was really dead
 They shot him down
 They shot him down
 They thought he was a monster
 But he was the king
 But he was the king
 But he was the king
 But he was the king
