 (Spoken):
  This  one's for the bouncers; big, big Monkey Man.
 Aye aye  aye, aye aye aye, tell you baby;
 You huggin'  up the big  monkey man.
 Aye aye  aye, aye aye aye, tell you baby;
 You huggin'  up the big  monkey man.
 I never saw  you, I only heard of you;
 Huggin' up the big  monkey man.
 I never saw  you, I only heard of you;
 Huggin' up the big  monkey man.
 It's no  lie, it's no lie, them a tell me;
 You huggin'  up the big  monkey man.
 It's no  lie, it's no lie, them a tell me;
 You huggin'  up the big  monkey man.
 Now I know  that, now I understand;
 You're turning  a monkey on  me.
 Now I know  that, now I understand;
 You're turning  a monkey on  me.
 Aye aye  aye, aye aye aye, tell you baby;
 You huggin'  up the big  monkey man.
 Aye aye  aye, aye aye aye, tell you baby;
 You huggin'  up the big  monkey man.
 I was on  my way to Banbury Cross,
 Then I  see a monkey  up-on  a white horse.
 With rings  on he fingers, bells on him toes,
 Sing a little song,  wher-ever  he be.
 'Cos he's a monkey,  'cos he's a monkey,
 'Cos he's a weedy,  weedy, weedy,  little monkey  man.
 Aye aye  aye, aye aye aye, tell you baby;
 You huggin'  up the big  monkey man.
 Aye aye  aye, aye aye aye, tell you baby;
 You huggin'  up the big  monkey man.
 Aye aye  aye, aye aye aye, tell you baby;
 You huggin'  up the big  monkey man.
 Aye aye  aye, aye aye aye, tell you baby;
 You huggin'  up the big  monkey man.
