Three monkey’s sat in a coconut tree Discussing things as they are said to be Said one to the others, “Now listen, you two,” “There’s a rumor around that can’t be true,” “That man descended from our noble race,” “The very idea is a great disgrace.””No monkey has ever deserted his wife,” “Starved her babies and ruined her life,” “And you’ve never known a mother monk,” “To leave her babies with others to bunk,” “Or pass from one on to another” “So they scarcely know who is their mother,””Here’s another thing a monkey won’t do,” “Go out at night and get on a stew,” “Or use a gun, a club or a knife,” “To take some other monkey’s life,” “Yes, man descended, the ornery cuss,” “But, brother, he didn’t descend from us!” |
