Los Lobos - I Wan'na Be Like You (The Monkey Song) Lyrics

Artist: Los Lobos

Album: Los Lobos Goes Disney

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Richard M Sherman, Robert B Sherman

Now, I'm the king of the swingers world
The jungle be, I be
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 humping around

So, ooh, I wanna be just like you
I wanna walk like you, talk like you too
You 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, I wanna be just like you
I wanna walk like you, talk like you too
You see it's true, an ape like me
Can learn to be human too

You see it's true, an ape like me
Can learn to be human too
