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 botherin' me
I wanna be a man, mancub and stroll right into town
And 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
Mowgli: Gee, cousin Louie, you're doing real good.
Now don't try to kid me, mancub, I made a deal with you
What I desire is man's red fire to make my dream come true
Give me the secret, mancub, clue me what to do
Give me the power of man's red flower, so I can be like you
Chorus
