Monkey on the Mango Tree

Wake up on the branch, feet too quick

Banana peel grin, got that slick trick

Tail like a question mark, swish-swish swing

Pocket full of mangoes, I take one swing

Red cap backward, hearts go boom

I do my little stomp in the open room

Look at me now

I’m climbing the crowd

Hands in the air

I’m coming around

Monkey on the mango tree

Monkey on the mango tree

Everybody move like me

(more, more, more)

Monkey on the mango tree

Monkey on the mango tree

If you wanna come, just leap

(hey hey, leap!)

Coconut shell drums on my hips

Sticky sweet juice on my fingertips

I make a mess, then I make it shine

Three little jumps and the whole world’s mine

Eyes on the prize, I don’t sit still

I go from branch to branch, I get my thrill

Look at me now

I’m climbing the crowd

Hands in the air

I’m coming around

Monkey on the mango tree

Monkey on the mango tree

Everybody move like me

(more, more, more)

Monkey on the mango tree

Monkey on the mango tree

If you wanna come, just leap

(hey hey, leap!)

One, two, three, we go wild

Big bright grin, jungle child

Clap your hands, let it ring

I’m the beat of the night, I’m the swing

Ooh-ooh, follow me

Up so high on the mango tree

Monkey on the mango tree

Monkey on the mango tree

Everybody move like me

(more, more, more)

Monkey on the mango tree

Monkey on the mango tree

If you wanna come, just leap

(hey hey, leap!)
