Louis Prima, Phil Harris, Bruce Reitherman - I Wan'na Be Like You (The Monkey Song)

Текст песни

Now, I’m the king of the swingers, uh\nThe jungle VIP\nI’ve reached the top and had to stop\nAnd that’s what’s botherin' me\nI wanna be a man, man-cub\nAnd stroll right into town\nAnd be just like the other men\nI’m tired of monkeyin' around\nOoh, I wanna be like you\nI wanna walk like you\nTalk like you, too\nYou’ll see it’s true\nAn ape like me\nCan learn to be\nHuman too\nNow, don’t try to kid me, man-cub\nAnd don’t get in a stew\nWhat I desire is man’s red fire\nSo I can be like you\nNow gimme the secret, man-cub\nJust clue me what to do\nGive me the power of man’s red flower\nAnd make my dreams come true\nNow I will ape your mannerisms\nAnd we’ll be a set of twins\nNo one will know\nWhere man-cub ends and orangutan begins\nAnd when I eat bananas\nI won’t peel them with my feet\n'Cause I’ll become a man\nMan-cub and learn some etiquette\nOoh, I wanna be like you\nI wanna walk like you\nTalk like you, too\nYou’ll see it’s true\nAn ape like me\nCan learn to be\nHuman too\nCan learn to be\nHuman too\nI wanna be like you\nI wanna feel human, too
