Song : A
Am
Now I'm the king of the swingers
E7
Oh, the jungle VIP,

I've reached the top and had to stop
Am
And that's what botherin' me.

I wanna be a man, mancub,
E7
And stroll right into town

And be just like the other men
Am
I'm tired of monkeyin' around!

Chorus :
G7 C
Oh, oo-bee-doo
A7
I wanna be like you
D7
I wanna walk like you,
G7 C
Talk like you too.
G7 C
You'll see it's true
A7
An ape like me
D7 G7 C
Can learn to be human too.

Am
Now don't try to kid me, mancub
E7
I made a deal with you

What I desire is man's red fire
Am
To make my dream come true.

Give me the secret, mancub,
E7
Clue me what to do

Give me the power of man's red flower
Am
So I can be like you.

Chorus
