Well, I'm the king of the swingers, oh
The jungle VIP
I've reached the top and had to stop
And that's what's botherin' me
I wanna be a man, man-cub
And stroll right into town
And be just like the other men
I'm tired of monkeyin' around
Ooh-be-doo, I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you, too
You see it's true
An ape like me
Can learn to be a human too
♪
Now, don't try to kid me, man-cub
I made a deal with you
What I desire is man who's red fire
To make my dreams come true
Now give me the secret, man-cub, come on
Clue me what to do
Give me the power of man's red flower
So I can be like you
Ooh-be-doo, I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you, too
You see it's true
An ape like me
Can learn to be a human too
