Now [Am]I'm the king of the swingers, oh.
The jungle VI-[E7]P,
I've reached the top and had to stop
And that's what botherin' [Am]me.
I wanna be a man, Man Cub,
And stroll right into [E7]town
And be just like the other men
I'm tired of monkeyin' a-[Am]↓round!
{soc}
[G7]↓Oh, [C]oo-bee-doo
I wanna be like [A7]you
I wanna [D7]walk like you,
[G7]Talk like you, [C]too.
[G7]↓You'll ↓see ↓it's [C]true
An ape like [A7]me
Can [D7]learn to be [G7]human, [C]too.

{c:verse 2}
Now [Am]don't try to kid me, Man Cub
I made a deal with [E7]you
What I desire is man's red fire
To make my dream come [Am]true.
Give me the secret, Man Cub,
Clue me what to [E7]do
Give me the power of man's red flower
So I can be like [Am]↓you.
{soc}
[G7]↓Oh, [C]oo-bee-doo
I wanna be like [A7]you
I wanna [D7]walk like you,
[G7]Talk like you, [C]too.
[G7]↓You'll ↓see ↓it's [C]true
Someone like [A7]me
Can [D7]learn to be [G7]like someone like [C]me. [A7]
Can [D7]learn to be [G7]like someone like [C]you. [A7]
Can [D7]learn to be [G7]like someone like [C]me.
