Funky monkey rockabye baby on the tree tops

where the rain drops fluky like the tail of a whale,

tales from monkeys without tails

Cranky lanky he's a junkie, smoking dope until he chokes,

risky frisky

and drinkin whiskey dying young is just another hoax

Funky Monkey (kumain ng saging)

Funky Monkey (sumabit sa baging)

Fun-ky Mon-key!

Sweet riffs and and funky licks,

kanabiz and a bag of tricks

Like a fuel injected pump,

these monkeys make me wanna jump

Funky monkey rockabye baby

on the tree trops where the rain drops

Fluky like the tail of a whale,

tales from monkey's without tails

Funky monkey rockabye baby

on the treetops where the raindrops

keep fallin on my head & I said to myself,

"Have I read the books on the shelf?"

Cuz this is how we do it, real funky,

I figured if you would really wanna

know then I'm a show you how it's done gee whiz,

this is the style

run the 1/4 mile under a minute I get in it,

like the Stylistics

I'm on the case of Jimi Hendrix,

1966, my cheeks are full of lipstick

Wipe it off with a soft tissue paper I wanna be great,

no rephrase that

I wanna be greater! Like the tail of the whale,

tales from monkeys w/out tails

Funky monkey, a funky junkie,

risky frisky and drinkin whiskey keep

smokin on dope until he chokes,

because dyin young is just another hoax

another scam, act like a ham,

caught stealin a cheat on the final exam

the tricks of the trade is to crank funky licks,

sweet riffs and a bag of tricks

funky junkie with a bandana,

funky monkey eat a banana (funky ng ina mo!)
