I Wanna Be Like You (The Monkey Song)

Now I'm the king of the swinger's world The jungle VIP I reach the top and have to stop And that's what's a bother to me I wanna be a man, a man cub And stroll right into town And be just like the other men I'm tired of monkeying around So, ooh-ooh-ooh, I wanna be just like you I wanna walk like you And talk like you, too You'll see it's true An ape like me Can learn to be human, too Now don't try to kid me, man cub I made a deal with you What I desire is man's red fire To make my dream come true Give me the secret, man cub Just clue me what to do Give me the power of man's red flower So I can be like you So, ooh-ooh-ooh, I wanna be just like you I wanna walk like you Talk like you, too You'll see it's true An ape like me Can learn to be human, too You'll see it's true An ape like me Can learn to be human, too
