Come gather 'round me you little monkeys and a story I'll About a brave young primate, space knew him well He was born at the top of a big old Way in 1953
He could swing the jungle and hang by his toes they took him to Russia 'cause they could I suppose They dressed him up in a spacesuit and it to snow Shot him off in a where no man would go
Space monkey, monkey, what you doing out there? Why dark as a dungeon way up in the air There'll be no one to you when you get back home Well, no or sickle, you'll be on your own
He had plenty of bananas and loads of Spam But he found difficulty trying to open the can One day he slipped on a banana peel and the ship control It spun out of orbit and shot out the hole
