Am E7
[Verse 1]
Am
I'm the king of the swingers oh
E7
the jungle VIP
well I've reached the top and had to stop
Am
and that's what's botherin' me
I wanna be a man, man-cub
E7
and stroll right into town
I'm tired of being an ape man
Am
I'm tired of monkeyin' around
[Chorus]
G C
Oh doo-bee-doo
A7
wanna be like you
D7 G C
Wanna walk like you and talk like you too
You'll see it's true
A7
an ape like me
D7 G C
can learn to be human too
[Verse 2]
Am
Now, don't try to kid me man-cub
E7
I made a deal with you
What I desire is man's red fire
Am
make my dreams come true
Gimme that secret man-cub
E7
lob in a stew
Gimme the power of man's red flower
Am
so I can be like you
[Chorus]
G C
Oh doo-bee-doo
A7
wanna be like you
D7 G C
Wanna walk like you and talk like you too
You'll see it's true
A7
an ape like me
D7 G C
can learn to be human too
D7 G C
can learn to be human too
