Am//// ////     E7          Am                         E7
    Now I'm the King of the swingers, oh, the jungle VIP
                                                                 Am
I've reached the top and had to stop and that's what’s botherin' me
             E7   Am                           E7
I wanna be a man, mancub and stroll right into town
                                                       Am G7
And be just like the other men I'm tired of monkeyin' around

          C Fadd2 C                 A7 Em7 A7
Oh, oobee doo       I wanna be like yo-oo-oo-u
        D7               G7
I wanna walk like you    talk like you

C A7 Dm G7
Too-oo-oo
               C Fadd2 C                 A7 Em7 A7
You'll see its true-oo-oo    an ape like me-ee-ee
     D7             G7           C  D7  E7
Can learn to be------|     hu-u-u-u-man too-o-o-o-o

Am                    E7      Am                          E7
     Now don't try to kid me, mancub, I made a deal with you
                                                      Am
What I desire is man's red fire to make my dream come true
            E7      Am                      E7
Give me the secret, mancub, clue me what to do
                                                        Am G7
Give me the power of man's red flower, so I can be like you

Am                 E7     Am                            E7
     I'll ape your mannerisms   we'll be like a set of twins
                                                   Am
No one will know where mancub ends and orangutan begins
           E7    Am                                 E7
And when I eat bananas,  I won't peel them with my feet
                                                      Am G7
Cause I'll become a man, mancub, and learn some ‘etti-keet’!
