Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Monkey baby why you lookin' at me?
Monkey baby why don't you climb that tree?
Hairy people let the monkey baby dance
Hairy people let the monkey baby dance dance
No! More!
Monkey baby's havin' fun
No! More!
Monkey baby's on the run
Bananas don't grow in the Louisiana swamps
So the monkey baby's comin' to the monkey baby funk
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Funky lady why you dissin' on me?
Funky lady in your Continental Grand Prix
Sexy brothers let the funky lady dance
Sexy brothers watch the funky lady dance dance
No! More!
Funky lady's feelin' good
No! More!
Funky lady's in my 'hood
Got big feet with the bullets in my teeth
Gotta call nine-eleven for the N.Y.P.D.
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Whoa oh ah hah ah ah ah huh
Monkey baby why you lookin' at me?
Monkey baby why don't you climb that tree?
Hairy people let the monkey baby dance
Hairy people let the monkey baby dance dance
No! More!
Monkey baby's havin' fun
No! More!
Monkey baby's on the run
Bananas don't grow in the Louisiana swamps
So the monkey baby's comin' to the monkey baby funk
Monkey baby monkey baby monkey baby monkey baby
Monkey baby monkey baby monkey baby monkey baby
Monkey baby's bangin' at my door
Monkey baby's got me on the floor
Monkey baby's tryin' havin' fun
Monkey baby's still the only one
Monkey baby got some fat-ass lips
Monkey baby put them on my hips
Monkey baby you are also bionic
Monkey baby let's smoke some chronic
Monkey baby share my Gin and Tonic(baby)
Monkey babies all love Miss Matronic (baby)
Monkey baby's in my underwear
Monkey baby's in my pubic hair
Monkey babies think that I don't care
Monkey baby's in my derriere
Monkey baby like my big fat ass
Monkey baby ridin' in first class
Monkey baby in pantyhose
Monkey baby got no cocaine nose
Monkey baby ooh ya monkey baby
I hear my monkey baby (baby)
Monkey baby ooh ya monkey baby
Monkey baby ooh ya monkey baby
Monkey baby's in the Brooklyn Queens
Monkey baby's in designer jeans
(spoken)
You know, monkeys make great pets.
It's like having a baby that never grows up.
And they look so cute in diapers.
And they look up at you with those big soft brown saucer eyes
and they say to you...
(monkey sounds)
(Baby)
