I Wan'na Be Like You

Now, I'm the king of the swingers, oh

The jungle VIP

I've reached the top and had to stop

And that's what's bothering me

I wanna be a man, man cub, yeah

Just stroll right into town

I wanna be just like the other men

I'm tired of monkeyin' around

Oh, oobee-doo, I wanna be like you

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

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 come true

And give me a secret, man cub

Clue me in to what to do (What, what?)

Give me the power of man's red flower

So I can be like you

Oh, oobee-doo, I wanna be like you

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, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, oobee-doo, I wanna be like you

I wanna walk like you

Talk like you, too, yeah

Oh, oobee-doo, I wanna be like you

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, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
