Oh the monkey's had a better tale than you
|
Compare to yours all their tales sound so true
|
The way you're actin' seems to me at all the monkey should go free
|
You're the one that should be locked up in the Zoo
|
|
When I married you I thought you were a man
|
But you're the biggest ape that's living in this land
|
I'd like to run you up a tree for the way you lie to me
|
Your swingin' round is gettin' out of hand
|
Oh the monkey's had...
|
|
Every monkey has its day so go ahead and play
|
Make your plans and tell your lies and stick to them
|
But from now on I remind you can wag your tail behind you
|
Cause you finally got yourself out on a limb
|
|
[Banjo]

|
Every monkey has its day...
|
Oh the monkey's had a better tale than you
