The Monkey Dance [1999] lyrics

Jeff, Jeff? *Jeff snores*

It's Jeff! Whoa!

I don't believe this. You're all right, everybody. Jeffrey is always falling asleep. Yeah. Hey, I've got an idea. Let's wake Jeff up, okay? Yeah? When I count three, let's all say "Wake up Jeff". And at the same time, we'll do the Wiggle fingers just like this and hopefully, that will wake him up and he'll jump up and down and do all sorts of silly things. It'll be really, really funny. So when I can count three, let's say "Wake up Jeff" and do the Wiggle fingers just like that. Here we go.

One, two, three. Wake up, Jeff! *wakes up and acts like a monkey* Hey, wow! What's he doing? Jeff, excuse me. What are you doing? *stops making noises* I just had a dream! I dreamt I was a monkey and I was doing a monkey dance just like this! *makes monkey noises* Just like that, Jeff? Just like this. Well Jeff, that sounds like a great idea! *Jeff stops making noises* Let's do a monkey dance together, everybody!

All right, everyone! Here's three of our favorite animals. Let's move like them. Here we go!

We're gonna do the monkey

Do the monkey

Monkey, monkey

Yeah, that's alright!

Here comes an elephant, everybody!

Let's do the elephant (Roo!)

Do the elephant (Roo!)

Do the elephant (Roo!)

Yeah, that's alright!

Get ready to jump, everyone! Here we go!

CHORUS

Let's jump to the front and back!

Come on and jump to the front and the back

We're gonna jump to the front and back

Yeah, that's alright!

Here comes the growling tiger!

Do the tiger, (Rawwwr!)

Do the tiger, (Rawwwr!)

The tiger, tiger, (Rawwwr!)

Yeah, that's alright!

Get ready to jump again! Here we go!

CHORUS

Let's jump to the front and back

Come on and jump to the front and the back

We're gonna jump to the front and back

Yeah, that's alright!

Here comes that crazy monkey again!

So do the monkey!

Do the monkey

Do the elephant (Roo!)

The tiger, tiger

Rawwwr!

Great animal dancing, everyone!
