If you believe in Darwin's theory
        A5                             F5
I'm not saying you have to but it's an interesting theory
C5              G5               C5
Darwin said we all evolve from monkeys
       C5                             G5
If his theory is accurate and really who am I to say?
         A5                      F5
Does the opposite work going the other way?
      C5              G5             C5
If it does I wanna devolve back to monkeys

                F5    G5                 C5
        I wanna be a monkey that's for sure
                F5    G5                   C5
        I wanna be a monkey like Curious George


I would sit around all day just eating bananas
I might be naked or just wear pyjamas
And make my money appearing in hilarious movies
Monkey see, monkey do
That would be my excuse
It's not my fault, I'm just a monkey who can see

        I wanna be a monkey, that'd be nice
        I wanna be a monkey, eating other monkey's lice

When they say it's so easy that a monkey could do it
I'd be more than happy to prove it
Then you'd know for sure if it was easy or not
And if you wanna see the home of Michael Jackson
I could provide some simian distraction
Cuz we all know monkeys are Michael's second biggest weakness

                F5    G5            C5
        I wanna be a monkey yes I do
                F5    G5                   C5
        I wanna be a monkey and fling my poo
                F5    G5     C5
        I wanna beee-eee a monkey

               F5                G5
        I'd be agape if I was an ape
               C5                 A5
        What a thrilla to be a gorilla
                 F5              G5
        It would rock to be a macaque 
                     C5       F5 C5 F5
        I wanna be a monkey
