Ladies and gentlemen, for no real reason…Captain Beefheart.

Apes-Ma, Apes-Ma
Remember when you were young Apes-Ma?
And you used to break out of your cage?
Well you know that you’re not
Strong enough to do that anymore now
And Apes-Ma… The little girl that
Named you years ago died now
And you’re older Apes-Ma
Remember when she named you
And it was in the paper Apes-Ma?
Apes-Ma, Apes-Ma
You’re eating too much
And going to the bathroom too much Apes-Ma
And Apes-Ma, your cage isn’t getting any bigger Apes-Ma
