Now there's a place right across town, whenever you're ready |
|
Where the people gather 'round, whenever they're ready |
|
And then the music begins to play |
|
You feel a groove comin' on its way |
|
Are you ready? yes i'm ready. |
|
You get yours, i got mine |
|
For the monkey time, monkey time |
|
Now this dance that the people do, don't know how it started |
|
All i know is when the beat brings the feel |
|
It's hard to get parted |
|
And then the music begins to play |
|
And automatically you're on your way |
|
Are you ready? yes i'm ready. |
|
You get yours, i got mine |
|
For the monkey time, monkey time |
|
Do the monkey yeah, |
|
Do the monkey yeah, |
|
Do the monkey yeah, yeah |
|
Do the monkey yeah, yeah |
|
Twist them hips |
|
Let your backbone slip |
|
Now move your feet |
|
Get on the beat |
|
Are you ready? yes i'm ready. |
|
You get yours, i got mine |
|
For the monkey time, monkey time |
|
