Avenue P Lyrics

The song Avenue P is performed by Carole King in the album named Really Rosie (1975 Television Special) in the year 1999 .

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 bre*sts and roaring
Get off of 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
Avenue P as it ought to be
...
