King Kong(original) |
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 |
And she wouldn’t stop screaming |
But he loved the woman |
And he fought a Tyrannosaurus Rex |
And 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 these 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 took him across the ocean |
And they chained him |
And put him in the show |
And when he saw his woman |
He broke loose |
And everyone fled in terror |
And he was looking for her |
And he overtook a train |
And 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 |
And 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 that 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 that she was safe |
And as the bullets pierced |
He looked at her so sincere |
Before he fell |
Because he loved his woman |
And they shot him down |
They thought he was a monster |
But he was the king |
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 |
(traducción) |
lo derribaron |
lo derribaron |
Pensaron que era un monstruo |
Pero él era el rey |
Llegaron a su isla |
Y la trajeron con ellos |
Querían obtener su foto |
pero se sorprendieron |
Por su enorme tamaño |
Y cuando vio a la mujer |
Él la tomó sin dudar |
porque después de todo |
el era el rey |
Y amaba a la mujer |
Le encantaba la forma en que se veía |
Y ella no dejaba de gritar |
Pero él amaba a la mujer |
Y luchó contra un Tiranosaurio Rex |
Y fue una batalla sangrienta |
Pero luchó por su mujer |
Y subió a una montaña |
Y miró a su alrededor |
Una especie de bosque |
Con todos estos dinosaurios |
Y desnudó a su mujer |
Él la desnudó |
Pero había un pterodáctilo |
Allá |
Y luego un héroe |
Vino y se llevó a su mujer |
Y se cayeron de la montaña |
en un poco de agua |
y luego mas tarde |
Vino buscando a su mujer |
pero estaban esperando |
Y tiraron una bomba |
y lo amarraron |
Y lo llevó a través del océano |
y lo encadenaron |
Y ponerlo en el show |
Y cuando vio a su mujer |
se soltó |
Y todos huyeron aterrorizados |
y el la buscaba |
Y adelantó un tren |
Y estaba mirando en la calle |
Y luego la encontró en su apartamento. |
Y se subió |
El edificio Empire State |
Era como un símbolo fálico |
Y se llevó a su mujer |
A la cima de ese imponente templo |
Y se subió y miró a su alrededor |
Algún tipo de ciudad |
Con todos esos rascacielos |
Y todos los autos |
Solo él y su mujer que grita |
Y finalmente estaban solos |
El amaba a su mujer |
Podías verlo en sus ojos |
Sus grandes ojos grandes |
El amaba a su mujer |
Desde el momento en que la vio |
Estaba todo ahogado por dentro |
Pero cuando llegaron los aviones |
pronto iba a morir |
Pero aguantó lo suficiente para dejar a su mujer abajo |
Y asegurarse de que ella estaba a salvo |
Y como las balas perforaron |
El la miro tan sincero |
Antes de que cayera |
Porque amaba a su mujer |
Y lo derribaron |
Pensaron que era un monstruo |
Pero él era el rey |
quien mato al mono |
Fue la belleza la que mató a la bestia. |
Y Willis O'Brien murió |
Una muerte trágica |
no habia mucho |
Que se había ido |
Y Ray Harryhousen dijo |
Que cuando Willis murió |
Fue entonces cuando el rey estaba realmente muerto. |
lo derribaron |
lo derribaron |
Pensaron que era un monstruo |
Pero él era el rey |
