The Monkey Time

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

Are you ready? Yes I'm ready

Are you ready? Yes I'm ready

You get yours, I got mine

For the monkey time

Are you ready? Yes I'm ready

Are you ready? Yes I'm ready

Are you ready? Yes I'm ready

You get yours, I got mine

Say Fee, yes partner

Are you ready tonight? I'm ready

You're ready for what, man?

I'm ready to do the monkey, baby

You ready for my monkey?

I'm ready and my monkey's ready

Your monkey?

Ooo, you'd better put that baby on a chain

My monkey know what he talkin' about

And he's gonna jump all over you

Now stop it Fee

I don't wanna hear about it no more

Want a whole lot o' love tonight

Treat your monkey right

Want a whole lot o' love tonight

Monkey time tonight

Want a whole lot o' love tonight

Treat your monkey right

Want a whole lot o' love tonight

Monkey time tonight
