Monkeyhouse Lyrics

Look behind you A three-headed monkey

Today the monkeys are all raging

Cause they want to play some tunes

And theyre gonna start engaging

On all fours beneath the moon

The gorilla hits the drum

Making thunder in the zoo

And the chimpanzee will come

With his horn and blow right through

Crooked and all out of key

Baboons scream without a score

While the cheeky monkey Bobo

He conducts with a banana

You can hear their wails and screeches

Echo loud into the night

And the keeper named Ole

Is waking up to quite a fright

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Wop Wop Wop

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Wop Wop Wop

From his slumber hes disturbed

Falling backwards from his bed

His cheeks flush with anger

Glowing ultra-violet red

He bursts through the door

Cursing like a storm

And you can hear his words

Echoing as he marches through the dorm

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Wop Wop Wop

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Wop Wop Wop

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Wop Wop Wop

The elder ape looks thoughtful

He catches wind with his ear

Wer are in for trouble no doubt

If we dont start to clear

So the word spreads like wildfire

That the party's at its end

Its almost time for daylight

The clock strikes six my friend

Quick throw the drum into the corner

And the violins under the hay

Toss the rattles under covers

Hide the cello right away

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Wop Wop Wop

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Wop Wop Wop

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Wop Wop Wop

When the keeper finally shows up

The monkey house is still

No more rustling not a whisper

Theres no sign of any thrill

No more rage but wisdom now

As the keeper starts to think

That the monkeys may be noisy

But theyre smarter than youd think

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Wop Wop Wop

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Wop Wop Wop

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Baba Suena

Wop Wop Wop
