BURROWS I AIN'T AFRAID A NO IRISHMAN, YOU ALL KNOW WHAT I THINK. I LIKE A FORIEGNER ABOUT LIKE I LIKE SODA WATER IN MY DRINK. I AIN'T AFRAID A NOBODY AND I SURE AIN'T SCARED'A NO CHINK. AIN'T NO YELLOW-BELLIED, YELLOW-FACED, SLANTY-EYED COWARD EVER GONNA MAKE ME BLINK!
I'M THE GORILLA OF EAST LONDON! YOU SEE ME COMIN', YOU BETTER HIDE! LOOK AT ME CROSS AND I'LL UNCROSS YOU AND I'LL TOSS YOU TO THE SIDE!
MOLLY AND DOLLY HE'S THE GORILLA OF EAST LONDON AND HE'S A LEGEND THROUGHOUT THIS LAND! ASK ANYBODY WHO'S THE TOUGHEST, WHO FIGHTS THE ROUGHEST, THERE'S JUST ONE MAN!
BURROWS MADE ME LIVIN' WITH ME FISTS SINCE I WAS THIRTEEN, SINCE ME DADDY THROWED ME OUT INTO THE COLD. AND I CAN'T BE TRICKED, 'CAUSE I NEVER BEEN LICKED, LESS'N YOU COUNT THE LADIES THAT I LOVE TO HOLD!
MOLLY AND DOLLY HE'S THE GORILLA OF EAST LONDON, AND HE AIN'T NOTHIN' BUT MUSCLE AND BONE! BUT WHEN HIS FISTS THEY START TO FLARIN', YOU'LL BE A SWEARIN' THEY'RE SOLID STONE!
BURROWS I'M THE GORILLA OF EAST LONDON! AND JUST LIKE THE BEAST THEY NAMED ME FOR: I'LL ATTACK YOU ON A WHIM, I'LL RIP APART YOUR LIMBS, CHEW YOU UP AND STILL BE HUNGRY FOR SOME MORE!
MOLLY AND DOLLY LOOK AT THAT CHIN! LOOK AT THAT CHEST! HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A SPECIMEN SO FINE?
BURROWS MISTER, YOU'LL HAVE TO IMAGINE THE REST, BUT, GIRLIE, YOU CAN SEE IT ANY TIME! (JUST ASK ME)
I'M THE GORILLA OF EAST LONDON! SO IF YOU'RE WONDERIN' HOW TO GET A THRILL: BRING YOUR MONEY, BRING A FRIEND, THERE'LL BE BODIES FLYIN' WHEN, THE GORILLA OF EAST LONDON'S ON THE BILL!
ALL HE'S THE GORILLA OF EAST LONDON! YOU BEST BE RUNNIN', YOU BETTER HIDE! LOOK AT HIM CROSS AND HE'LL UNCROSS YOU AND THEN HE'LL TOSS YOU TO THE SIDE!
BURROWS AND IF ME RIVALS BLOOD AIN'T BRITISH, YOU CAN BET IT'S GONNA SPEW AND SPILL! SO BRING YOU MONEY, BRING IT ALL, FOR SOMEBODY'S GONNA FALL, THE GORILLA OF EAST LONDON'S ON THE BILL!
I GOT A TASTE FOR FIGHTIN' AND A DRINKIN', YOU SET 'EM UP, I'LL KNOCK 'EM DOWN! AND I'LL GO ALL NIGHT, TILL THE MORNIN' LIGHT AND STILL BE READY FOR ANOTHER ROUND!
ALL HE'S THE GORILLA OF EAST LONDON, AND HE AIN'T NOTHIN' BUT MUSCLE AND BONE!
BURROWS BUT WHEN ME FISTS, THEY START TO FLARIN' YOU'LL BE A SWEARIN' THEY'RE SOLID STONE!
ALL HE'S THE GORILLA OF EAST LONDON, SO IF YOU'RE WONDERIN' HOW TO GET A THRILL: BRING YOUR MONEY, BRING A FRIEND, THERE'LL BE BODIES FLYIN'' WHEN, THE GORILLA OF EAST LONDON'S ON THE BILL!
