Manu Chao - Monkey lyrics
[Manu Chao - Monkey lyrics]
Now three little monkeys sat
On a coconut tree
Discussing things has they are said to be
Said one to the other, now listen you two
There is a certain rumour that can't be true
That man descended from our noble race
The funny idea is a big disgrace
No monkey ever deserted his wife
Nor her baby and ruin her life
I said yeah monkey speaks his mind
And another thing you will never see
A monkey build a fence around a coconut tree
And let all the coconuts go to waist
Forbidding all other monkeys to
Come and taste
Now if i build a fence around this tree
Starvation will cause you to steal from me
I said Yea the monkey speaks his mind
Here is another thing a monkey won't do
Go out at night and get on a stew
Or use a gun a club or a knife
To take another monkey's life
Yes man descended the worthless bum
But my god brothers from us he did not come
Yeah the monkey speaks his mind
On a coconut tree
Discussing things has they are said to be
Said one to the other, now listen you two
There is a certain rumour that can't be true
That man descended from our noble race
The funny idea is a big disgrace
No monkey ever deserted his wife
Nor her baby and ruin her life
I said yeah monkey speaks his mind
And another thing you will never see
A monkey build a fence around a coconut tree
And let all the coconuts go to waist
Forbidding all other monkeys to
Come and taste
Now if i build a fence around this tree
Starvation will cause you to steal from me
I said Yea the monkey speaks his mind
Here is another thing a monkey won't do
Go out at night and get on a stew
Or use a gun a club or a knife
To take another monkey's life
Yes man descended the worthless bum
But my god brothers from us he did not come
Yeah the monkey speaks his mind
