Leave My Monkey Alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Down in Kenya where the Masai roam
And the grass grows tall on the veldt
In our old colonial home
We drank our bitters while the empire fell
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
One day the Mau Mau came
All we had was lost
In our old colonial home
Under the Southern Cross
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Down in Kenya where the Masai roam
And the grass grows tall on the veldt
In our old colonial home
We drank our bitters while the empire fell
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
The Mau Mau came in '52
The sun went down and we drew the drapes
In our old colonial home
We hid behind the Mau Mau gates
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Down in Kenya where the Masai roam
And the grass grows tall on the veldt
In our old colonial home
We drank our bitters while the empire fell
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
One day the Mau Mau came
All we had was lost
In our old colonial home
Under the Southern Cross
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Down in Kenya where the Masai roam
And the grass grows tall on the veldt
In our old colonial home
We drank our bitters while the empire fell
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
The Mau Mau came in '52
The sun went down and we drew the drapes
In our old colonial home
We hid behind the Mau Mau gates
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
