I Wan’na Be Like You
Ah-babba di-di-dibbi-di
Now I'm the king of the swingers
Oh, the jungle VIP
I've reached the top and had to stop
And that's what's botherin' me
I wanna be a man, man cub
And stroll right into town
And be just like the other men
I'm tired of monkeyin' around!
Oh, oobee doo (hoop du wee)
I wanna be like you (hap-du hobey-du-wa)
I wanna walk like you (chu)
Talk like you (chu), too
(We-be-de-be-du-wu)
You'll see it's true (shubbedey-du)
An ape like me (scubey-dubey-dubey)
Can learn to be human too
Ruppe-ti-coang, ruppe-ti-cing
Zuppa-t'bak t'bak t'bak t'bak t'bak
D'zi-bang-a-nang di-bak, woeep
Tee, cousin Louie
You're doin' real good
Now here's your part of the deal, cuz
Lay the secret on me of man's red fire
But I don't know how to make fire
Now don't try to kid me, mancub
I made a deal with you
What I desire is man's red fire
To make my dream come true
Now give me the secret, mancub
Come on, clue me what to do
Give me the power of man's red flower
So I can be like you
Heey!
De zap-an roney
Hab de-be-be dla-dla da-dan-roon

Like someone like me (take me home daddy!)

Like someone like you (one more time!)
Yeah, can learn to be
Like someone like me!
