The Monkey - Dave Bartholomew[00:00:00]

Yeah the monkey speaks his mind[00:00:04]

Now three monkeys sat in a coconut tree[00:00:16]

Discussing things as they are said to be[00:00:20]

Said one to other now listen you two[00:00:24]

There's a certain rumour that can't be true[00:00:28]

That man descended from our noble race[00:00:32]

Why the very idea is a big disgrace[00:00:35]

No monkey ever deserted his wife[00:00:40]

Starved her baby and ruined her life[00:00:43]

Yeah the monkey speaks his mind[00:00:46]

And you've never known a mother monk[00:00:55]

To leave the babies with others to bunk[00:00:59]

And passed them on from one to another[00:01:02]

Till they scarcely knew who was their mother[00:01:06]

Yeah the monkey speak his mind[00:01:09]

And another thing you will never see[00:01:18]

A monkey build a fence around a coconut tree[00:01:22]

And let all the coconuts go to waste[00:01:27]

Forbidding all other monkeys to come and taste[00:01:30]

Why if I put a fence around this tree[00:01:34]

Starvation would force you to steal from me[00:01:38]

Yeah the monkey speaks his mind[00:01:42]

Here's another thing a monkey won't do[00:01:49]

Go out on a night and get all in a stew[00:01:53]

Or use a gun or a club or a knife[00:01:57]

To take another monkey's life[00:02:01]

Yes man descended the worthless bum[00:02:05]

But brothers from us he did not come[00:02:09]

Yea the monkey speaks his mind[00:02:13]
