(This one's for all 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 (tell you baby)
You huggin' up the big monkey man
It's no lie, it's no lie (tell you baby)
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

Lala lalala lalalala
Lala lala lalalala
Lala lalala lalalala
Lala lala lalalala

I was on my way to Banbury Cross
Then I see a monkey upon a white horse
With rings on he fingers, bells on him toes
Sing a little song, wherever he be
'Cause he's a monkey, 'cause he's a monkey
'Cause he's a weedy meenie tweenie meenie 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
