Monkey See Monkey Do

My wife says I need glasses

But I don't think I do

Cause I fed that monkey a banana

One evening at the zoo

 

She said, "You know that's not a monkey"

But I would disagree

She said, "You knew that was my mama"

Well, it looked like a monkey to me

 

I can see as good as always

And I don't bump into the wall

I only got lost a couple of times

While walking down the hall

 

Things might be a little blurry

I just need a little sleep

So don't worry about these peepers

They still have plenty of peep

 

I still see that hairy monkey

I just act like it's not there

My wife still says it's her mama

Underneath that monkey hair
