I heard Tarzan Swinging through the jungle Calling the wild ones, The fringe dwellers, With, Ungowa! They answered, Dragging their knuckles Along the I-94, Then stampeding to crown, Their King of Apes.

Ungowa
I heard Tarzan Swinging through the jungle Calling the wild ones, The fringe dwellers, With, Ungowa! They answered, Dragging their knuckles Along the I-94, Then stampeding to crown, Their King of Apes.
"Ungowa" is Tarzan's one word command. It means, "Be quiet, a white man is speaking."
