Proudest Monkey
Swing in this tree
Mm-oh, I am bounce around so well
Branch to branch, limb to limb, you see
All in a day's dream I'm stuck
Like the other monkeys here
I am a humble monkey sitting up in here again
But then came the day
I climbed out of these safe limbs, ventured away
Walking tall, head high up and singing
I went to the city
Car horns, corners and the gritty
Now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do, yeah
Then comes the day
Staring at myself I turn to question me
I wonder: do I want the simple, simple life that I once lived in well?
Oh, things were quiet then
In a way they were the better days
But now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do, yeah
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do, monkey
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do, do, do, do, do
Monkey see, monkey do, do, do, do, do
Monkey see, monkey do, do, do, do, do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do, ooh-ooh
Mm-oh, I am bounce around so well
Branch to branch, limb to limb, you see
All in a day's dream I'm stuck
Like the other monkeys here
I am a humble monkey sitting up in here again
But then came the day
I climbed out of these safe limbs, ventured away
Walking tall, head high up and singing
I went to the city
Car horns, corners and the gritty
Now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do, yeah
Then comes the day
Staring at myself I turn to question me
I wonder: do I want the simple, simple life that I once lived in well?
Oh, things were quiet then
In a way they were the better days
But now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do, yeah
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do, monkey
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do, do, do, do, do
Monkey see, monkey do, do, do, do, do
Monkey see, monkey do, do, do, do, do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do, ooh-ooh
