If you believe in Darwin's theory   I'm not saying you have to but it's an interesting theory   Darwin said we all evolve from monkeys   If his theory is accurate and who am I to say?   Does the opposite work going the other way?   If it does I wanna devolve back to a monkey      I wanna be a monkey that's for sure   I wanna be a monkey like Curious George      I would sit around all day just eating bananas   I might be naked or just wear pyjamas   And make my money appearing in hilarious movies   Monkey see, monkey do   That would be my excuse   It's not my fault, I'm just a monkey who can see      I wanna be a monkey, that'd be nice   I wanna be a monkey, eating other monkey's lice      When they say it's so easy that a monkey could do it   I'd be more than happy to prove it   Then you'd know for sure if it was easy or not   And if you wanna see the home of Michael Jackson   I could provide some simian distraction   Cuz we all know monkeys are Michael's second biggest weakness      I wanna be a monkey yes I do   I wanna be a monkey and fling my poo   I wanna be a monkey   I'd be agape if I was an ape   What a thrilla to be a gorilla   It would rock to be a macaque   I wanna be a monkey
