letra de the signafyin' monkey - sam the sham

[chorus]
just as far as the eye could see
was a signifyin’ monkey in a coconut tree

[verse 1]
now, deep down in the jungle where the coconuts go
lives a signifyin’ monkey that the world should know
he told mr. lion on a bright, sunny day
“there’s a big, burly elephant comin’ down your way
now, i know, mr. lion, he couldn’t possibly be your friend
’cause he’s talkin’ about the shape that your family’s in

[verse 2]
now, he talked about your mother, even your sister, too
he shook his fist at your daddy”; man, that big cat flew
mr. lion listened on, and he got real stoked
popped that tail like a colt .44
he went off through the junglе with a terrific breeze
knockin’ coconuts from them coconut trees

[verse 3]
now, on down through thе jungle, who did he see?
but a big, burly elephant propped up against a tree
he said, “ah-ha! it’s plain to see
you the big cat what’s been talkin’ about me”
now, the elephant, he looked at him out the corner of his eye
he said, “you better gone you wooly rascal and pick on someone your own size”
[verse 4]
but mr. lion squared his shoulders and made a pass
elephant connected, knocked him flat on the grass
man, he messed up his ears and messed up his face
throw that cat’s shoulder bone all out of place
now, they fought all night, and they fought all day
you know, i don’t even know how that cat got away

[chorus]
just as far as the eye could see
was a signifyin’ monkey in a coconut tree

[verse 5]
on down through the jungle, who did he see?
n0body but the signifyin’ monkey high up in a tree
the monkey said to mr. lion, “you know it’s a shame
yesterday, you was king of the jungle, today, you look so tame”
the lion said to the monkey, “it’s a shame i can’t climb
’cause if i could your head bone would surely be mine”

[verse 6]
and the monkey got frantic, jumped up and down
and awful he slipped, and his head hit the ground
like a bolt of ligthnin’ and a barrel of white heat
the lion got on that monkey with all four feet
but then the monkey, you know, he looked up with tears in his eyes
he said, “you know, mr. lion, i’ve been wantin’ to apologize
[verse 7]
but if you let me up like a good man should
you know i’ll whip your ugly head all over these woods”
by the time the lion squared off to put up a good fight
the monkey jumped, slipped right out of sight

[chorus]
just as far as the eye could see
was a signifyin’ monkey in a coconut tree
