Song information

Lyrics

In dreams
It seems
I always see
Avenue p
As it ought to be
In a four-star movie
Directed by me
And starring, of course
Yours truly
Rosie

In this fabulous movie
You're all gonna see
An entirely different avenue p
Imagine me
In a jungle gown!
And avenue p, a jungle town!
With king kong
Swinging out of a tree
And carrying me
Over that jungle avenue p
Right!

You don't have to sit
With your face in a droop
On the stoop
'Cause your mama the boss
Says you better not cross
That old avenue p

In a jungle you're free!
The tom-tom beats
The tiger carouses
The jungle creeps over the red brick houses
And for chillers and thrillers
I train giant gorillas
To chase mamas and papas
Clippety-cloppety
Thumping their breasts
Roaring, get off my property!
No one's allowed
Who says maybe or no
They gotta get out
They just gotta go
Right!

In dreams
It seems
I always see
Avenue p
As it ought to be
A terrific place
For people like me
You'll see
I'll make it that way
Someday

Avenue p as it ought to be
Avenue p as it ought to be
