Now I'm the king of the swingers, oh, the jungle v. I. p
I reached the top, and had to stop
And that's what's bothering me

I wanna be a man, mancub
And stroll right into town
And be just like the other men
I'm tired of monkeying around

Oh, ohbeedoo
I wanna be like you (abee dobee dobee)
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you do
You'll see it's true (shobee doo)
An ape like me (shobee dobee dobee)
Can learn to be
Human too!

Swing it to the left, swing it to the right
Put you hands up and you, love your life
You can learn to be human too

Now don't try to kid me mancub
I made a deal with you
What I desire is man's red fire
To make my dreams come true

Now give me the secret man cub
Clue me what to do
Give me the power of man's red flower
So I can be like you

Oh, ohbeedoo
I wanna be like you, (abee dobee dobee)
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you do
You'll see it's true (shobee doo)
Someone like me (shobee dobee dobee)
Can learn to be like someone like me

Oh, ohbeedoo
I wanna be like you, (abee dobee dobee)
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you do
You'll see it's true (shobee doo)
Someone like me (shobee dobee dobee)
Can learn to be a human too (like someone like me)

Can learn to be like someone like you
Can learn to be like someone like me
