Manu Chao The Monkey Lyrics

I said yeah... Monkey speaks his mind

Now three little monkeys sat on a coconut tree
Discussing things has they are said to be
Said one to the other, now listen you two
There is a certain rumour that cant be true
That man descended from our noble race
The funny idea is a big disgrace
No monkey ever deserted his wife
Nor her baby and ruin her life

I said yeah... Monkey speaks his mind

And another thing you will never see
A monkey build a fence around a coconut tree
And let all the coconuts go to waist
Forbidding all other monkeys to come and taste
Now if i build a fence around this tree
Starvation will cause you to steal from me

I said Yea... the monkey speaks his mind

Here is another thing a monkey wont do
Go out at night and get on a stew
Or use a gun a club or a knife
To take another monkey's life

Yes man descended the worthless b__
But my god brothers from us he did not come

Yeah... The monkey speaks his mind
