Guys Love Monkeys
My refrigerator is on the fritz and all the food is ruined.
Five hundred dollars for a new one the salesman tells me,
But I laugh uncontrollably as the store monkey looks at me making faces;
‘Cause guys love monkeys.
The doctor tells me that I must have a digital exam for my prostate.
I quake deep within my manhood at first, but now I'm OK.
The docs got a monkey in a white jacket snapping a rubber glove;
‘Cause guys love monkeys.
My house is being foreclosed by the bank today.
I don't know where we'll sleep tonight, but I had to smile,
When the banker came on my porch with his accountant monkey;
‘Cause guys love monkeys.
My boss called me into the office to lay me off.
I'm 58 years old and now I'm out of work; but life is OK.
The company monkey hands me my pink slip, so I can only grin;
‘Cause guys love monkeys.
I never know why the chimp brought me so much pleasure,
Or why I laughed at his monkey shines no matter the situation.
Joy bubbles up from deep inside my heart when I look at a monkey,
‘Cause guys love monkeys.
