Freddy Cannon Everybody Monkey Lyrics:
(Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
(Monkey, Monkey, Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
(Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
(Monkey, Monkey, Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
(I can do The Monkey,)
(You can do The Monkey,)
(Everybody Monkey, yeah!)
There's a dance goin' 'round that's upsettin' this town.
(Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
Well, it feels real good like to teach it to you.
(Monkey, Monkey, Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
All my friends do it at the record hop.
When you do The Monkey you don't know when to stop.
(Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
(I can do The Monkey,)
(You can do The Monkey,)
(Everybody Monkey, yeah!)
(C'mon, take a lesson, now.)
(Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
Bend your back, now.
(Monkey, Monkey, Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
Woh, scratch your knees, now.
(Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
Whoo, jump around, now.
(Monkey, Monkey, Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
(Act just like a monkey,)
(You lookin' like a monkey,)
(Everybody Monkey, yeah!)
[Instrumental break with sounds of party voices.]
Well, I went to the seashore and what did I see?
(Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
A big, boss, Monkey line right on the beach.

Now everybody looked like they were havin' a ball.
Gets to dance when you hear them call,
(Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
(You can do The Monkey,)
(Swing just like a monkey,)
(Everybody Monkey, yeah!)
(C'mon, take a lesson, now.)
(Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
Aw, Bend your back, now.
(Monkey, Monkey, Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
Woo, scratch your knees, now.
(Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
Jump around, now.
(Monkey, Monkey, Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
(Act just like a monkey,)
(You lookin' like a monkey,)
(Everybody Monkey, yeah!)
[Fake ending.]
One more time!
(Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
(Monkey, Monkey, Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
Aw, scratch your knees, now.
(Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
Jump around, now.
(Monkey, Monkey, Monkey, Monkey-Monkey.)
