Monkey Around - Original Broadway Cast Recording Lyrics

There's a rustle in the bushes
There's a tremble in the trees
Here it like a whisper
Smell it on the summer breeze
(mm, mm)
Something big is getting nearer
Something big is coming through
Got some monkey business
That's what we intend to do
Come on

I wanna monkey
Monkey around
Come on
I gotta monkey
Monkey around
Come on
We're gonna monkey
Oo
We're gonna monkey around
Ooooo
"The Wickershams, oh hello"
Well it's bigger than a breadbox
(mm, mm)
Hey it's wider than a whale
(mm, mm)
Peanut butter breath
And scared to death from head to tail

So you're still talking to dust, oh what rot
A dust speck that's all full of Whos who are not
There aren't any Whos, why I don't hear a sound
Come on
We gotta monkey
Monkey around
