I Wan'na Be Like You (The Monkey Song)

Now, I'm the king of the swingers, oh, the jungle VIP

I've reached the top and had to stop, and that's what's bothering me

I wanna be a man, man cub, and stroll right into town

And be just like the other men, I'm tired of monkeying around

Oh, ooh bee doo, I wanna be like you

Come to walk like you, talk like you, too

You see it's true, an ape like me

Can learn to be human, too

Don't try to kid me, man cub, I made a deal with you

What I desire, is man's red fire to make my dreams come true

Give me the secret, man cub, clue me what to do

Give me the power of man's red flower so I can be like you

Oh, you, I wanna be like you

Want to walk like you, talk like you, too

You see it's true, someone like me

Can learn to be like someone like me

You, I wanna be like you

Want to talk like you

Walk like you, too

You see it's true, someone like me

Can learn to be like someone like you

Can learn to be like someone like you
