| Lyrics |
I can tell by your nose and the fur between your toes
You're bound to look like a monkey when you grow old
When you grow old
When you grow old
You're bound to look like a monkey when you grow old
I can tell by your knees you've been climbing up coconut trees
You're bound to look like a monkey when you grow old
When you grow old
When you grow old
You're bound to look like a monkey when you grow old
I can tell by your hands that you've got monkey glands
You're bound to look like a monkey when you grow old
When you grow old
When you grow old
You're bound to look like a monkey when you grow old
I can tell by your face you're a member of the simian race
You're bound to look like a monkey when you grow old
When you grow old
When you grow old
You're bound to look like a monkey when you grow old
I can tell by your smile you like to it monkey style
You're bound to look like a monkey when you grow old
When you grow old
When you grow old
You're bound to look like a monkey when you grow old
I can tell by your nails that your folks hung by their tails
Your bound to look like a monkey when you grow old
When you grow old
When you grow old
You're bound to look like a monkey when you grow old |
