Overview

This obscure Donkey Kong-themed album has virtually no evidence of its existence on the Internet. If you were on Napster back in the day, you may have seen an MP3 entitled "Donkey Kong Song," which happens to be the "Donkey Kong Theme" here (track 1).

Lyrics

1) Donkey Kong Theme

Hey! Look at that! Way up on top...
Big old gorilla
Gonna get you

Who's that up there, way up on top?
Who's that up there, why won't he stop
Throwin' barrels down on Mario?

Donkey Kong

Now who's that up there, what is his name?
Is he up there, fortune or fame?
Or is he there, just to have some fun?

Donkey Kong

We're talkin' gorilla, we're not talkin' Godzilla (Donkey Kong)
We're talkin' gorilla, we're not talkin' Godzilla (Donkey Kong)
We're talkin' gorilla, we're not talkin' Godzilla (Donkey Kong)
We're talkin' gorilla, we're not talkin' Godzilla (Donkey Kong)
We're talkin' gorilla, we're not talkin' Godzilla (Donkey Kong)
We're talkin' gorilla, we're not talkin' [fade out]

2) No More Zoo for You

[Spoken:] Donkey Kong, we sure miss you. All of us. We sure wish the zoo was over there. Now it's gone. Can't come by and see you in the mornings before we go to school like we used to. Sure wish you were over there at that zoo. We sure miss you.

There's no more zoo for you
And you're feeling awful blue
'Cause you want your old home
It's a place to roam
It's like a happy holiday

But there's no more, no more zoo zoo zoo for you
But there's no more, no more zoo zoo zoo for you

You'd like to make your bed
In a place where you're not afraid
To laugh and play
and start your day
In a place that's good for you

But there's no more, no more zoo zoo zoo for you
But there's no more, no more zoo zoo zoo for you

But there's no more, no more, no more, no more, no more
Zoo zoo zoo for you
Zoo zoo zoo for you
Zoo zoo zoo for you
Zoo zoo zoo for you

You'd like to make your bed
In a place where you're not afraid
To laugh and play
and start your day
In a place that's good for you

But there's no more, no more zoo zoo zoo for you
But there's no more, no more zoo zoo zoo for you

But there's no more, no more, no more, no more, no more
Zoo zoo zoo for you
Zoo zoo zoo for you
Zoo zoo zoo for you
Zoo zoo zoo for you

3) Jump Up

You better look out overhead
Before it all falls down on you
There's a danger straight ahead
It'll roll right over you

Don't be the one
It's too much fun

Look out overhead
Comin' down on you
We better jump up
We better jump up
We better jump up
We better jump up

Hey Mario! Get Pauline down!
You better bring down Donkey Kong too
You better look out! The fire's ahead
It's a-burnin' after you

Don't be afraid
You've got it made
Look out
Look out
We better jump up
We better jump up
We better jump up
We better jump up
Better jump up
We better jump up!
We better jump up!
We better jump up

[Misc. vocals]

We better jump up
We better jump up!
We better jump up!!
We better jump up

Jump up, we better jump up
Because it's comin' down on you
Jump up, we better jump up
Because it's comin' down on you (on you)
Jump up, we better jump up
Because it's comin' down on you [fade out]

6) The Climber

Scaling the heights of the city forever
Climbing as fast and as high as he can

He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber

Looking up, looking down, knows where he's going
Nothing can stop someone driven to climb
Carefully taking a risk as he's showing
A knowledge of movement and a powerful climb

He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber

Miniature people are nervously watching and
Hoping that no one comes down in a dive
Taking the chance that a fall could be coming
Taking the chance that goes on with his life

He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber

Ooh, he's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber
He's a climber (He's a climber!)
He's a climber
He's a climber (He's a climber!)
He's a climber [fade out]

7) On Top of the World

There's nothin' I like better
Than lookin' down on the street
Now I'm sitting on top of the world (on top of the, on top of the world)
Yes I'm sitting on top of my world

I used to think about being free
Now look at- look at- look at- look at me
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world (on top of the, on top of the world)
Yes I'm sitting on top of my world

Now I'll never never never never never never be the one
No, I'll never never never never never be the one to run

'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world (on top of the, on top of the world)
Yes I'm sitting on top of my world
My world
Top of the world
World

Now I'll never never never never never never be the one
No, I'll never never never never never be the one to run

Because I'm sitting on top of the world (on top of the, on top of the world)
Yes I'm sitting on top of my world
My world (world)
My world (on top of the, on top of the world)
I'm sitting on top of my world
My world (ooh) [fade out]
