The Funky Monkey

He swings through the trees with bananas in his toes
Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey
He’s a groovy kind of primate and everybody knows
Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey
He’s playin’ the bongos to a jungle beat
He makes everybody wanna move their feet
Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey

He claps his feet and dances on his hands
Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey
He plays all kinds of rhythm – he’s a one mammal band
Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey
He’s always happy, he’s never glum
He spends all day just a bangin’ on the drums
Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey

(kids go crazy on air drums here)

He’s playin’ the bongos to that jungle beat
He makes everybody wanna move their feet
Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey

Congas and djembes and log drums too
Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey
If you ask him, he’ll show you what to do
Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey
You’ll be playin’ the bongos to that jungle beat
Makin’ everybody wanna move their feet
Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey
Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey
Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey, Funky Monkey
