Too Much Monkey Business

Runnin' to and fro, hard workin' at the mill

Never failed in the mail, yet come a rotten bill

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in

Salesman talking to me tryin' to run me up a creek

Say, "You can buy it, go on, try it, you can pay me next week" ah

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in

Blonde-haired, good lookin' tryin' to get me hooked

Want me to marry, get a home, settle down, write a book, ha

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in

Same thing every day, gettin' up, goin' to school

No need to be complainin', my objections overruled, ah

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in

Payphone, somethin' wrong, dime gone, will mail

I ought to sue the operator for tellin' me a tale, ah

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in

I been to Yokohama, been fightin' in the war

Army bunk, army chow, army clothes, army car, ah

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in

Workin' in the fillin' station, too many tasks

Wipe the windows, check the tires, check the oil, dollar gas, ah

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

I don't want your botheration, get away, leave me be

Too much monkey business for me
