The Lyrics
To my best friend Tiff who calls everyone a Monkey
Never made it as an elephant
Couldn't cut it as
a poor bird singin'
Tired of livin' like a deaf rat
I'm sick of hearing without a sense of feeling
And this is how I'm a monkey
That's what I really am
This is how I'm a monkey
It's what I really am
It's not like I like to go swimmin'
I was swingin' on a flimsy branch
This time I fell in
and got all wet
and my pride is broken
I've been wet
I've been up
On the tops of every tree
These five trees on my land scream
Come Swing on me!
Ooh ooh ooh
ah ah
Ooh ooh ooh
ah ah
It's not like you can't swing too
I said I love swinging
I swear I still do
and it could've been so fun
but, livin' in the trees almost killed you
And this is how I'm a monkey
That's what I really am
This is how I'm a monkey
It's what I really am
It's not like I like to go swimmin'
I was swingin' on a flimsy branch
This time I fell in
and got all wet
and my pride is broken
I've been wet
I've been up
On the tops of every tree
These five trees on my land scream
Come Swing on me!
Ooh ooh ohh
ah ah
Ooh ooh ohh
ah ah
Ooh ooh ohh
ah ah
Ooh ooh ohh
ah ah
Never made it as an elephant
Couldn't cut it as
a poor bird singin'
Tired of livin' like a deaf rat
I'm sick of hearing without a sense of feeling
And this is how I'm a monkey
And this is how I'm a monkey
That's what I really am
This is how I'm a monkey
It's what I really am
It's not like I like to go swimmin'
I was swingin' on a flimsy branch
This time I fell in
and got all wet
and my pride is broken
I've been wet
I've been up
On the tops of every tree
These five trees on my land scream
Come Swing on me!
Ooh ooh
are we swingin' enough?
Ooh ooh
are we swingin' enough?
Ooh ooh
are we swingin' enough?
Ooh ooh
ah ah
Couldn't cut it as
a poor bird singin'
Tired of livin' like a deaf rat
I'm sick of hearing without a sense of feeling
And this is how I'm a monkey
That's what I really am
This is how I'm a monkey
It's what I really am
It's not like I like to go swimmin'
I was swingin' on a flimsy branch
This time I fell in
and got all wet
and my pride is broken
I've been wet
I've been up
On the tops of every tree
These five trees on my land scream
Come Swing on me!
Ooh ooh ooh
ah ah
Ooh ooh ooh

It's not like you can't swing too

This is how I'm a monkey
It's what I really am
It's not like I like to go swimmin'
I was swingin' on a flimsy branch
This time I fell in
and got all wet
and my pride is broken
I've been wet
