Lyrics
Sitting around, watching TV Looking for something to do When all of a sudden a commercial comes on And says, "Hey! Go to the zoo!" So me and my friends, we piled in the car Didn't have much gas, good thing we didn't have to go too far Didn't have to go too far First thing's first, we got some ice cream And then we headed over to tease the monkeys Took my tongue out and made the monkey frown Trying to be cool with my friends around Well I guess he had enough of me 'Cause when I turned my head he stole my ice cream That little monkey stole my ice cream and everybody laughed at me That little monkey stole my ice cream And everybody made fun of me That little monkey made a monkey out of me As the day came to an end We walked right by the monkey again Then as he was swinging from tree to tree I swear that monkey was laughing at me! Don't monkey with a monkey Don't monkey with a monkey Don't monkey with a monkey Don't monkey with a monkey That little monkey made a monkey out of me That little monkey made a monkey out of me Don't monkey with a monkey Don't monkey with a monkey Don't monkey with a monkey That little monkey made a monkey out of me!
