The Monkey [Mento Mix]

The monkey speaks his mind

Three monkeys sat on a coconut tree
Discussing things as they are said to be
Said one to the other
"Now listen you two
There's a certain rumor that can't be true
That man descended from our noble race
The very idea is a big disgrace
No monkey ever deserted his wife
Nor her baby and ruined her life"

Yeah, the monkey speaks his mind

And you've never known a mother monk
To leave her baby, causing it to flunk
Or pass them on one to the other
'Til they scarcely knew who was their mother

Yeah, the 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

Yeah, the monkey speaks his mind

Here is another thing a monkey won't do
Go out at night and get in 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
