Nov 2014
I Married a Chimpanzee
Today a year is over
Today a year I see
Today I remembered the day
I married a chimpanzee
I’m not sure if it was love at first sight
But somehow we were smitten
Our fate was in the stars
And that’s where it was written
People were always curious
And they wondered how it could be
That I had fallen in love
With my darling Chimpanzee
His undying love for bananas
And hanging by the bars
My chimpanzee was always hyper
And loved to drive fast cars
Sometimes things got difficult
And sometimes we’d disagree
It’s kind of frustrating when you are arguing
And all he says is “oo oo aa aa eee”
When we’re on holiday
He’d pack his suitcase tight
With bananas and oranges
And all sorts of monkey delights
Although his monkey quirks
Sometimes make mad
I knew what I signed up for
And sometimes it also makes me glad
He takes the time to listen
He takes the time to be
A good loving husband
Even though he’s a Chimpanzee
My Chimpanzee husband is awesome
And he’s the best for me
Today we’re eating a banana cake
As we celebrate our anniversary.
