I bought a monkey for Sallie And let it run amok I bought a monkey for Sallie It listens to hard rock It gobbles up our food Messily Scribbles on the walls And especially Plays with itself From dawn to dusk From dusk to the crack of dawn I bought a monkey for Sallie Wicked as the day is long I bought a monkey for Sallie And let it run amok It jumps into our bed at night And fiddles with my cock Its tail is long and feathery It swings from the lights Drinks heavily And plays with itself From dawn to dusk From dusk to the crack of dawn I bought a monkey for Sallie Wicked as the day is long I bought a monkey for Sallie It's messing up our lives It plays the barrel organ And sharpens kitchen knives I've never seen such lively curiosity The way it paws at Sallie And invariably Plays with itself From dawn to dusk From dusk to the crack of dawn I bought a monkey for Sallie Wicked as the day is long
