In the city park, on a sunny afternoon
There’s a crazy scene that makes you wanna swoon
A group of folks, they’re gathered 'round
Making such a racket, you’d think the zoo’s in town

Oh, they’re hollering, they’re hooting, like a wild parade
Over something trivial, you’d think it’s a charade

Monkey see, monkey do, acting like a zoo
Shouting out those insults, making such a brew
Swinging from their words, throwing tantrums too
They’re all just a bunch of monkeys, and they haven’t got a clue

It started with a comment, just a little thing
But it turned into chaos, like a broken spring
Now they’re jumping, they’re screeching, throwing verbal stones
It’s a madhouse in the park, and it chills you to the bones

Oh, they’re hollering, they’re hooting, like a wild parade
Over something trivial, you’d think it’s a charade

Monkey see, monkey do, acting like a zoo
Shouting out those insults, making such a brew
Swinging from their words, throwing tantrums too
They’re all just a bunch of monkeys, and they haven’t got a clue
Monkey see, monkey do, acting like a zoo
Shouting out those insults, making such a brew
Swinging from their words, throwing tantrums too
They’re all just a bunch of monkeys, and they haven’t got a clue

Can’t they see the madness, the absurdity?
Making such a fuss, it’s insanity
Over petty nonsense, they’ve lost their grace
Turning into monkeys, in this public space

Monkey see, monkey do, acting like a zoo
Shouting out those insults, making such a brew
Swinging from their words, throwing tantrums too
They’re all just a bunch of monkeys, and they haven’t got a clue
Monkey see, monkey do, acting like a zoo
Shouting out those insults, making such a brew
Swinging from their words, throwing tantrums too
They’re all just a bunch of monkeys, in this public space
They’re all just a bunch of monkeys, and they haven’t got a clue

So if you see them gathered, causing such a scene
Just remember, people can be so obscene
It’s a funny sight, but it’s sad and true
Sometimes we’re just like monkeys, doing what we do
