| Now I’m the king of the swingers
|
| Oh, the jungle VIP
|
| I’ve reached the top and had to stop
|
| And that’s what botherin' me
|
| I wanna be a man, mancub
|
| And stroll right into town
|
| And be just like the other men
|
| I’m tired of monkeyin' around!
|
| Refrain: Oh, oobee doo
|
| I wanna be like you
|
| I wanna walk like you
|
| Talk like you
|
| It’s true
|
| An ape like me
|
| Can learn to be human too
|
| Don’t try to kid me, mancub
|
| I made a deal with you
|
| What I desire is man’s red fire
|
| To make my dream come true
|
| Give me the secret, come on
|
| Clue me what to do
|
| Give me the power of man’s red flower
|
| So I can be like you
|
| Obee doo
|
| I wanna be like you
|
| I wanna talk like you
|
| Walk like you
|
| It’s true
|
| An ape like me
|
| Can learn to be
|
| Human too
|
| Can learn to be
|
| Like someone like you
|
| Can learn to be
|
| Human too |
