Don’t tell the Night Monkey about daylight
Don’t tell the Chimpanzee about the end of the world
Don’t pray to the jungle in the name of Orang utans
Don’t ever tell the Monk Saki about jazz

Don’t teach the path of the forest to the Mountain Gorilla
Don’t teach the path of the forest to the Mountain Gorilla

Don’t teach the Shockheaded Capuchon about the apocalypse
Don’t tell the Red Back Bearded Saki Monkey to shave ever

Don’t play Paint It Black to the White Eared Titi monkey
Don’t preach the art of cornflakes to the Gibbon Ape family

Don’t teach the path of the forest to the Mountain Gorilla
Don’t teach the path of the forest to the Mountain Gorilla
