Lyrics

[JEFF] I'm sad, hurt bad Fell from a tree and skinned my knee The other kids made fun and it made me mad But it doesn't matter to my monkey It doesn't matter, he still wants to hang out with me It doesn't matter to my monkey If I can't climb a tree Baghdad, insurgency in Chad No one's to blame, it's just the same From the fruited plain to Leningrad But it doesn't matter to my monkey It doesn't matter, 'cause he's only a chimpanzee It doesn't matter to my monkey My monkey and me Monkey see but monkey don't care Monkey see but monkey don't care Monkey see but monkey don't care And he's got the right idea My dad is mad He said he'd ground me if he found me Trying to sneak you from the lab But I was bad and now I'm glad I set him free cause he shared with me his chimpanzee philosophy And this is what my monkey said to me: [PING] I know a little white man Little White does the best he can I am a big black man Well, not really, but I pretend I am Little White and Big Black meet As they go walking down the street Black wants rights and White wants fights No matter who you try to blame You all look the same to me [JEFF] See, it doesn't matter to my monkey He doesn't care, it's not his affair Which way you lean politically It doesn't matter to my monkey As long as he's free Ah, he's free Monkey see but monkey don't care Monkey see but monkey don't care Monkey see but monkey don't care And he's got the right idea My monkey's got the right idea
