I’M A MONKEY AND YOU ARE TOO
MAKIN APE LOVE’S ALL I WANNA DO
YOU’RE IN YOUR CAGE. I’M IN MINE
WISH WE COULD SHARE A BANANA SOME TIME

‘CAUSE I’M APE FOR YOUR LOVE
YES, I’M APE FOR YOUR LOVE
BUT YOU SAY, “NO, NO, NO, NO APE LOVE.”
“ NO, NO, NO, NO APE LOVE.”
“ NO, NO, NO, NO APE LOVE.”

WELL I DON’T HARDLY KNOW THAT I’M HERE
MY CAGE IS ALL OF WHAT I’M AWARE
NOW AN APE’S S’POSED TO SWING IN THE TREES
MAKIN’ APE LOVE IN THE LEAVES

‘CAUSE I’M APE FOR YOUR LOVE
YES, I’M APE FOR YOUR LOVE
BUT YOU SAY, “NO, NO, NO, NO APE LOVE.”
“ NO, NO, NO, NO APE LOVE.”
“ NO, NO, NO, NO APE LOVE.”

I WANNA PROTECT YOU IN THE ZOO
FROM THE TIGERS AND BABOONS
THEN I’LL TAKE YOU TO THE ZOO DISCO
AND BE YOUR KING KONG ROMEO

‘CAUSE I’M APE FOR YOUR LOVE
YES I’M APE FOR YOUR LOVE
BUT YOU SAY “NO, NO, NO, NO APE LOVE.”
“ NO, NO, NO, NO APE LOVE.”
“ NO, NO, NO, NO APE LOVE.”
