The Monkey Lyrics - Singles - Mano Negra

I said, yeah monkey 

Now three little monkeys sat on a coconut tree 

Discussing things as they are said to be 

Said one to the other, now listen you two 

There is a certain rumor that can't be true 

That man descended from our noble race 

The funny idea is a big disgrace 

No monkey ever deserted his wife 

Nor her baby and ruin her life 

I said, yeah, monkey speaks his mind 

And another thing you will never see 

A monkey build a fence around a coconut tree 

And let all the coconuts go to waste 

Forbidding all other monkeys to come and taste 

Now if I build a fence around this tree 

Starvation will cause you to steal from me 

I said, yeah, the monkey speaks his mind 

Here is another thing a monkey won't do 

Go out at night and get on a stew 

Or use a gun a club or a knife 

To take another monkey's life 

Yes, man descended the worthless bum 

But my God brothers, from us he did not come 

Yeah, the monkey speaks his mind
