The moon is bright above
Oh, what a night for love
And as I hold you near
I whisper in your ear
I go ape everytime I see you smile
I'm a ding-dong gorila and
I carry on cave man style
I'm gonna bop you on the head
And love you all the while
Well, I'm a monkey's uncle
Who's a cousin to a chimpazee
Like I was reelin and rockin
And swingin from a coco-nut tree
Oh, honey can't you see
You bring out the monkey business in me
Orangotango ring-ting-tong
Honey won't you say you're mine
With no hunky dunky monkey shine
When you hold my hand
I'm a pre-historic man
I go ape!
Like a barrel of monkeys
On an aba-da-ba honey moon
I go squealin and screechin and howlin
Like a big baboon
Well, baby I'll explode
If you don't come and kiss me soon
Yeah! Ooh!
Ohh... Honey you know that
I'm gonna be true to you
I'll keep you in bananas
and bring you coco-nuts too
And we'll settle down
In the nearest county zoo
Orangotango ring-ting-tong
Honey won't you say you're mine
With no hunky dunky monkey shine
When you hold my hand
I'm a pre-historic man
I go ape!
