Lyrics: Little Red Monkey
Performed by: Joy Nicholas, Jimmy Edwards, and Dick Bentley
Distributed by: EMI Music Distribution
Look at the monkey, funny monkey
Little red monkey, acting so fidgety
Look at the monkey, funny monkey
Little red monkey, cute as can be
Where is his mama, papa, sister, brother, cousin, rest-of-the-family?
Little red monkey, on his own, some very lonesome monkey is he
Listen carefully, Dick and Jimmy, 'cause here is a job for you (what
is it?)
If you get him into the zoo (the zoo?)
He'd do all of his tricks for you (joy!)
Why not drop him a line or two (what for?)
Inviting him to the zoo
For if we do (then what?)
He'll be a happy, snappy monkey
Little red monkey acting so merrily
We hope you like this little red monkey
Very lonesome monkey is he
Look at the monkey, funny monkey
Little red monkey, acting so fidgety
Get out your fiddle and play him a tune, Dick
Very lonesome monkey is he
That was ghastly!
Don't think the monkey liked that medley
Seems to be jumpy, acting so fidgety
You cheer him up, Jimmy, with your euphonium
Little red monkey, cute as can be
Oh, Jim, didn't he love it too? (I got it right!)
If you listen, he'll talk to you
He will chatter the whole day through
(monkey sounds)
Now he's a snappy, happy monkey
Little red monkey acting so merrily
See how we like this little red monkey
Very troublesome monkey is he
Little red monkey
Little red monkey
Won't you stay to tea?
(monkey sounds)
He said yes!
