Yeah the monkey speaks his mind [00:00:04]
[00:00:09]
Now three monkeys sat in a coconut tree [00:00:15]
Discussing things as they are said to be [00:00:20]
Said one to other now listen you two [00:00:23]
There's a certain rumour that just can't be true [00:00:27]
That man descended from our noble race [00:00:31]
Why the very idea is a big disgrace [00:00:35]
No monkey ever deserted his wife [00:00:39]
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 [00:00:54]
To leave the babies with others to bunk [00:00:58]
And passed them on from one to another [00:01:02]
Till they scarcely knew which was their mother [00:01:06]
Yeah the monkey speak his mind [00:01:10]
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 [00:01:26]
Forbidding other monkeys to come and taste [00:01:29]
Why if I put a fence around this tree [00:01:34]
Starvation would force you to steal from me [00:01:37]
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]
And 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 [00:02:08]
Yea the monkey speaks his mind [00:02:13]
