You treat me just as if I were a monkey in a cage
|
Your friends all think it's clever they think it's the latest rage
|
They point at me behind my back and say now ain't that cute
|
But when you get home tonight you'll find your monkey's flew the coop
|
And I'll be walkin' the dog a livin' high on the hog blowin' goin' roarin' every night
|
You'll find me struttin' my strot yes I'll be cuttin' the rug
|
Don't wait up cause your monkey won't be home tonight
|
[ guitar ]
|
Whatever suits you fancy it's why you think I should do
|
Jump up and down turn round and round and then jump through the hook
|
But I should swing from limb to limb so everyone can see
|
Well I may do some swingin' but it won't be from a tree
|
And I'll be walkin' the dog...
|
Don't wait up cause your monkey won't be home tonight
