Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Jungle life
I'm far away from nowhere
On my own like Tarzan boy
Hide and seek
Monkey business on a sunny afternoon
Jungle life
I'm living in the open
Native beat that carries on
Burning bright
A fire blows the signal to the sky
I sit and wonder, does the message get to you?
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Chance tonight
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other world
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Jungle life
You're far away from nothing
It's all right
You won't miss home
Take a chance
Leave everything behind you
Come and join me, won't be sorry
It's easy to survive
Jungle life
We're living in the open
All alone like Tarzan boy
Hide and seek
We play along while rushing 'cross the forest
Monkey business on a sunny afternoon
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Chance tonight, oh yeah
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Night to night
You won't play
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Chance tonight, oh yeah
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other world
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
In the song "Tarzan Boy" by DACJ, the repetitive opening lines "Oh, oh, oh" create a sense of rhythm and a primal, tribal atmosphere, setting the stage for the jungle theme of the lyrics.

As the chorus repeats the plea for "the other world" and "the chance tonight," there is a sense of longing for something beyond the ordinary, a yearning for adventure and excitement. The invitation to leave everything behind and join in the jungle life suggests a desire for escape and a break from the mundane routines of everyday life. The chorus also emphasizes the idea of taking chances and embracing the unknown, symbolized by the jungle as a place of mystery and discovery.
Overall, "Tarzan Boy" explores themes of freedom, connection to nature, and the allure of a wild and untamed existence. The lyrics paint a picture of a carefree and adventurous life in the jungle, where one can play and roam freely like Tarzan, away from the constraints of society.
