THE MONKEYS

The monkeys dance from tree to tree
Getting free food people come to give
The mischievous ones grab the baby bottles
Showing how it could be done

The people run
The people chase
In the garden or in the woods
The monkeys reign supreme

Across the poles
Cables connect binding it
The monkeys climb up there
Sit watching the people
The snatchers on the unwary humans
Picnicking forgetting about monkeys
By the time they realize
Every item nearly disappears

The monkeys poking fun
The antics on the run
Tails high in the air
“Catch me if you dare”

On the roads
Sitting admiring the crazies drive
Then the monkeys too learn
Running across before the green light

The heroes amongst the band
Cheating death lying through
The drum beats keeping hitting the high note
Until the screeching tires stop them good

The monkeys when on their own
Things will keep disappearing
Humans just keep feeding
Never know what the monkeys do

The monkeys dance from tree to tree
Cracking jokes on their antics
Playing it out on the people
Chasing feeding them
Saying they are so good
