I Wan’na Be Like You (The Monkey Song)

Robert B. Sherman, Richard M. Sherman

Now, I’m the king of the swing of soul
The jungle V.I.P
I’ve reached the top and had to stop
That’s what’s bothering me
I wanna be a man, man-cub
And stroll right into town
And be just like the other men
I’m tired of monkeyin’ around!
Ooh-woo-we-doo
I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too
You see it’s true, an ape like me
Can learn to be human, too

Now don’t try to kid me, man-cub
I made a deal with you versuri.us
What I desire is man’s red fire
To make my dream come true
Now give me the secret, man-cub
Come on, clue me what to do
Give me the power of man’s red flower
So I can be like you
Hey

Oh, you
I wanna be like you
Be like you
I want to walk like you, talk like you, too
You see it’s true
Someone like me
Someone like you
Can learn to be like someone like you
Like who?
Like you, my man
Can learn to be like someone like you
You, you, you, you
You
Can learn to be like someone like you
Yeah
