You're my favorite animal, but I'm biased I guess Because you look quite a bit like me You're not as eloquent and you've a hairier chest But I can't pick my family As I shake your hand I can feel your grip And it's definitely firmer than mine They say a strong handshake shows the man is equipped But if I called you a man I'd be crossing a line You're an animal You're not like me You're an animal I have dominion over thee You might be my cousin But I don't know if you could be my friend 'Cause you don't seem the person on Which when I'm in need I could depend In fact when I look closer You don't seem like a person at all Do you have opinions? Do you keep morals? Do you even have a soul? You're an animal You're not like me You're an animal Oh what a silly thing to be And when I look at you Do you know what I see? I see me I see me 'Cause when I look at you Yeah I can't help but see myself Next to you in the tree You're my favorite animal, but I'm biased I guess Because you look quite a bit like me And when I stand to admire you I can't help but confess That your mannerisms fill me with glee You're partial to bananas, and I'm munching on chips That I'm sharing with the friend by my side You peel it from the bottom, concentrating as you sit Break it in two and pass half to the friend you're beside You're an animal (oowaoo) You're just like me (oowaoo) 'Cause I'm an animal (oowaoo) We're of the same biology Oh mister monkey man, I've got a favor can't you see I was wondering if you would make a monkey out of me?
