Oh the monkey's had a better tale than you
Compared to yours all their chatter sounds so true
The way you act, it seems to me that at all the monkeys should go free
And 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 livin' in this land
I'd like to run you up a tree for the way you lie to me
And your swingin' round is gettin' out of hand
Oh the monkey's had a better tale than you
Compared to yours all their chatter sounds so true
The way you lie, it seems to me that at all the monkeys should go free
And you're the one that should be locked up in the zoo
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 drag your tails behind you
Cause you finally got yourself out on a limb
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 tails behind you
Cause you finally got yourself out on a limb
