Monkeys in a Tree

Monkeys in a tree, monkeys in a tree

One, two, three, how many can you see?

They hang around, upside down

Swinging by their tails in the breeze

Oh, monkeys in a tree

Monkeys on the ground, monkeys on the ground

Four, five, six, watch them jump around

They laugh and play and shout, "Wahey!"

And no one ever tells them to calm down

Oh, monkeys on the ground

Monkeys in my room, monkeys in my room

Seven, eight, nine, ten, chase them with a broom

They jump off chairs and run downstairs

And steal all the knives and forks and spoons

Oh, monkeys in my room
