Oh my honey do come and hurry to the Zoo Where the funny little monkeys are If you want to laugh for an hour and a half Better hurry up and take a car Come and see them dance that peculiar little prance You'll be crazy over every bar Come and see them do that monkey doodle doo [chorus:] Watch those monkeys monkey doodle All around, all around, all around Watch those monks go off their noodle As they bound 'round Look, look, look, look Look at the funny little monkeys in the cage Eating peanuts while they're monkey doodeling Watch those monkeys throw their shoulders In the air, in the air, in the air See them snap their claws and holler it's a bear there See that monkey on that bench Lead the band with a monkey wrench While the rest are dancing That monkey doodle doo [2nd verse:] Honey hear that pure little monkey overture Coming from the little monkey band Can't you see the tails winding all around the rails Hear the leader of them all command Listen to his moan in a language of his own "Take your monkey ladies by the hand Take your partners for that monkey doodle doo
