Jungle, one of the last songs to be written for the album, is here in the form it was early in 1986.
lyrics
These days –
These days I can hardly breathe
Caught in hypocrisy
You have to be blind to see!
Killjoys,
You poison us all with no conscience
Well, how much to sell your soul?
The prices are going gold!
Mr. Jungle, please
Mr. Jungle, please, please me
Go quench your libido
Mr. Jungle, please
Mr. Jungle, please please me
It's a jungle, it's a jungle,
Help! Help!
Please help me – Life is a jungle!
It's a jungle, it's a jungle,
Help, Help!
Believe me – Life is a jungle!
You fool! –
Before you play 'God' to your minions
There's something you ought to know,
I've taken it up 'til now
But it gets too hot, can you breathe!
Mr. Jungle, please
Mr. Jungle, freeze sleaze
I question your notions
Mr. Jungle, please
Mr. Jungle, freeze, freeze sleaze
It's a jungle, it's a jungle,
Help! Help!
Please help me! – Life is a jungle!
It's a jungle, it's a jungle,
Help! Help!
Believe me! – Life is a jungle!
Mr. Jungle, please
Mr. Jungle, please me
La ta ta ta da
There's something you ought to know
I've taken it up 'til now
But it gets too hot, can you breathe!
Mr. Jungle, please
Mr. Jungle, please me
It's a jungle, it's a jungle,
Help! Help!
Please help me! – Life is a jungle!
It's a jungle, it's a jungle,
Help! Help!
Believe me! – Life is a jungle!
It's a jungle, it's a jungle,
Help! Help!
Please help me! – Life is a jungle!
It's a jungle, it's a jungle,
Help! Help!
Please help me! – Life is a jungle!
(I'm out of my tree!)

I remember the excitement when The Sentinel was released having seen the band live a few times before. I loved the album but was aware that there were tracks missing and it had been rumoured that it was to be a double album. To hear all these takes and works in progress takes me right back to the 80's and the buzz of all the new prog that was coming out back then. This is an absolutely essential purchase for any Pallas fan. nuttinikki

This is an absolutely fantastic collection featuring near perfect newer run-downs of the Atlantis suite and Wedge tracks (with Rat Racing being my definitive entrance to this period, wonderful) as well as great and heavy concert sessions of The Cross and the Crucible and Sanctuary (personal favourite). My favourite bundle so far. futureperfect93
