I Wan'na Be Like You (The Monkey Song) - From "The Jungle Book"
Now I'm the king of swingers, oh
The jungle V.I.P
I reached the top and had to stop
And that's what bothering me
I wanna be a man, man-cub,
And stroll right into town
And be just like those other men
I'm tired of monkeying around
Ooh-bi-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
What I desire is man's red fire
To make my dream's come true
So give me the secret, man-cub
Hey, clue me what to do
Give me the power of man's red flower
So I can be like you
Ooh-bi-doo, I wan'na be like you
I want to walk like you, talk like you, too
You see it's true, an ape like me
Can learn to be human, too
Now here's your part of the deal cuz
Lay the secret on me of man's red fire
You-hoo-hoo, I wan'na be like you-hoo-hoo
I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too
You'll see it's true, an ape like me
Can learn to be human, too
Ooh-bi-doo, I wan'na be like you
I wanna walk, I wanna walk,
I wanna walk and talk like you
You see it's true, true an ape like me
Can learn to be human, too
The jungle V.I.P
I reached the top and had to stop
And that's what bothering me
I wanna be a man, man-cub,
And stroll right into town
And be just like those other men
I'm tired of monkeying around
Ooh-bi-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
What I desire is man's red fire
To make my dream's come true
So give me the secret, man-cub
Hey, clue me what to do
Give me the power of man's red flower
So I can be like you
Ooh-bi-doo, I wan'na be like you
I want to walk like you, talk like you, too
You see it's true, an ape like me
Can learn to be human, too
Now here's your part of the deal cuz
Lay the secret on me of man's red fire
You-hoo-hoo, I wan'na be like you-hoo-hoo
I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too
You'll see it's true, an ape like me
Can learn to be human, too
Ooh-bi-doo, I wan'na be like you
I wanna walk, I wanna walk,
I wanna walk and talk like you
You see it's true, true an ape like me
Can learn to be human, too
