I’m a People

Lyrics

Now if I was a monkey, a-workin' for a livin' I'd be a-gettin' instead of a-givin' A-hangin' by my tail, a-waitin' for the dinner bell Puttin' humans on Every day them fools rush in And lay down the cash and watch me grin I put 'em all on, I'd hum a little song An' watch 'em all go tee-hee But I spell a P, a little bitty E Sweet bop, bop, bop, sh-shoo, shoobie doobie doh In a little round O Now you add another P, a big skinny L There's a-one more E An' you got a people that looks like, me Now a monkey don't have to go down town An' ask for a job an' gettin' turned down I'm mad at me, I could smash me 'Cause I am a people --- Instrumental --- Now, a monkey don't have to shoot an' speak All he do is scratch his fleas Oh, me, what luxury But I'm a people Now I spell a P, a little bitty E Sweet bop, bop, bop, a-shoo, shoobie doobie doh In a little round O Now you add another P, a big skinny L There's a-one more E An' you got a creature that looks like, me Now if anyone knocked on my door today There'd be a little sign says: Gone away Down to the zoo, diggin' you know who 'Cause I'm a people Now I spell a P, a little bitty E Sweet bop, bop, bop, sh-shoo, shoobie doobie doh In a little round O Now you add another P, a big skinny L There's a-one more E An' you got a creature that looks like, me...
