If your monkey's acting badly, I'll tell you what I'm thinkin'
What your monkey really needs is a damn good spankin'
Just pull his little trousers down and toss him cross your knee
And spank that monkey's bum most satisfactorily
'Cause he's a naughty monkey he's a naughty monkey, The most recalcitrant by far
And all his mugshots are up in the police stations, From Alberta to the shores of Zanzibar
He gives old Uncle Bert a shiner. He starts food fights while in your favorite diner
He will steal a plane and fly to Asia Minor 'Cause he's such a naughty monkey
If your monkey comes to dinner, he'll break your favorite pie plate
Monkey keeps library books, well beyond their due date
Each time that monkey goes to town, he's hauled home by the cops
When monk makes you a drink you can expect knockout drops
'Cause he's a naughty monkey he's a naughty monkey, He's such a saucy simian
And all his antics are known in the best of circles, From the Zulu to the Argentinians
He'll peek down cousin Cora's sweater
His bathroom habits aren't getting better
If he runs away he won't leave you a letter
'Cause he's such a naughty monkey
(instrumental break)
(repeat verse 1)
'Cause he's a naughty monkey he's a naughty monkey, He just keeps getting more risque
And all his crimes have been shown on the top ten wanted, from Alhambra to farthest Zimbabwe

This album sounds exactly like the cover looks. It’s a light and fun set of tracks that almost feel like they’re being performed just for you. A nice break for a busy day. Mykie Frankenstein
