Monkey Man Lyrics

Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Hugging up the big monkey man
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Hugging up the big monkey man

Never saw you, I only heard of you
Hugging up the big monkey man
I never saw you, I only heard of you
Hugging up the big monkey man

It's your lie, it's your lie
Hugging up the big monkey man
It's your lie, it's your lie
Hugging up the big monkey man

Now I know that, now I understand
Hugging up the big monkey man
Now I know that, now I understand
Hugging up the big monkey man

La-la-la, la-la-la
Hugging up the big monkey man
La-la-la, la-la-la
Hugging up the big monkey man

Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Hugging up the big monkey man
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Hugging up the big monkey man
Never saw you, I only heard of you
Hugging up the big monkey man
I never saw you, I only heard of you
Hugging up the big monkey man

It's your lie, it's your lie
Hugging up the big monkey man
It's your lie, it's your lie
Hugging up the big monkey man

Now I know that, now I understand
Hugging up the big monkey man
Now I know that, now I understand
Hugging up the big monkey man

La-la-la, la-la-la
Hugging up the big monkey man
La-la-la, la-la-la
Hugging up the big monkey man

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
