Вступление
"Gorilla, You're A Desperado" (Zevon)
From "Bad Luck Streak in Dancing School" (1980)
12-string acoustic, standard tuning.
[verse]
Big gorilla at the L.A. Zoo,
snatched the glasses right off my face.
Took the keys to my BMW,
left me here to take his place.
[verse]
I wish the ape a lot of success,
I'm sorry my apartment's a mess
Most of all, I'm sorry if I made you blue,
I'm bettin' the gorilla will too.
[verse]
They say "Jesus will find you wherever you go",
but when he'll come looking for you, they don't know.
In the meantime keep your profile low,
gorilla, you're a desperado.
[bridge]
He built a house on an acre of land,
he called it "Villa Gorilla".
Now I hear he's getting divorced,
laying low at L'Ermitage, of course.

Then the ape grew very depressed,
went through transactional analysis.
He plays racquetball and runs in the rain,
still, he's tethered to a platinum chain.
[verse]
Big gorilla at the L.A. Zoo,
snatched the glasses right off of my face.
took the keys to my BMW,
left me here to take his place.
