lyrics
Loving hands and a longing stare, I look your way
I wanna be with you, I’m stuck here in a zoo
But I escaped to show you just how much I care I took you away
I wanna be with you, there’s nothing I can do, My plans are falling through
You took this stubborn monkey’s heart and broke it right in two
You are my one and only
Can’t seem to win your affection
No bananas to earn your smile
And now I’m lost and lonely
Standing on the girder of rejection
I thump my chest and wail to no avail
Thought we had made a connection
Now I’ve lost all direction
Climbing building endlessly
Nothing but good intentions
Derailed by my inventions
I feel the pain barrel down on me
I wanna be with you
There’s nothing I can do
I love you can’t you see
I wanna be with you
There's nothing I can do
My plans are falling through
There’s nothing for a stubborn ape like me left to do
Your boyfriend’s come to take you away
I don’t know what you see in him
With his suspenders and double chin
Climbing up he’s come to save the day
I know my time is coming soon
And it won’t be long till I fall to my doom
They’ll build a shrine in front of my tomb
All for you, Pauline
Thought we had made a connection
Now I’ve lost all direction
Climbing building endlessly
Nothing but good intentions
Derailed by my inventions
I feel the pain barrel down on me
I wanna be with you
There’s nothing I can do
I love you can’t you see
I wanna be with you
There's nothing I can do
My plans are falling through
There’s nothing for a stubborn ape like me left to do
I wanna be with you
There’s nothing I can do
My plans are filling through
