Cabbage - Gibraltar Ape Lyrics

I wanna be as free as a Gibraltar ape
Throw around bones and throats decay
Admiring the views and the British landscape
(Look up it's just on the tired rock face)

I wanna be as free as John Hall's logbook
Shrug off the traps and one in the others
Backed by virtue and my brothers

It's quite the distance
Soak, I'd actually like to think I could
I'm going back to Gibraltar

I wanna be free as a Gibraltar child
Drunk at fourteen on pints of mild
Ignoring preachers, in padded tiles
(Steel-toed caps that sink into the shins)

Instead I'll pass through Huddersfield
To muster out the change and courage I can yield
I'm young again, waiting out the backfield
(We're not spending any of your time)

I wanna be free as a Gibraltar ape
I wanna be as free as a Gibraltar ape

It's quite the distance
Soak, I'd actually like to think I could
I'm going back to Gibraltar

It's quite the distance
Soak, I'd actually like to think we care
We're going back to Gibraltar

I wanna be as free as a Gibraltar ape
I wanna be as free as a Gibraltar ape
I wanna be as free as a Gibraltar ape
I wanna be as free as a Gibraltar ape
I wanna be as free as a Gibraltar ape
