Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
Once he was so famous that little old clown
Everybody used to know his name
Now he is a nameless but happy old guy
The children laugh if only he goes by
Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
When the sun is shining he goes to the park
Climbs the empty band stand on the green
Doing for the children his famous routin
So they still laugh
When slowly he walks home
Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
