Monkeys Jumpin on the Bed

What Can Monkeys Do?
Monkey, Monkey #1.
What can we do for some fun? Make a face.
Monkey, Monkey #2.
Tell me something we can do? Try a silly sound.
Monkey, Monkey #3.
What can you do with me? Bump sides together
Monkey, Monkey #4.
Can you add something more? Stomp your feet.
Monkey. Monkey #5.
If you had a car, how would you drive?
Like this – Vroom, vroom
Now all 5 monkeys have had a chance,
Get together do the Monkey Dance
Ooh ooh – EE EE – Ah Ah Ah
Watch the Monkey That Moves
These monkeys will play a little game with you
They’ll show you their dances and their grooves
You will know what you should do if you
Watch the monkey that moves
For the monkey on the thumb, clap your hands.
Pointer jump; tall man turn around
Ring man wants you to bend your knees.
Pinky means touch the ground.
Can you do their motions?
Can you do their grooves?
Watch the monkey that moves.
Ring man – bend; Pointer – jump.
Tall man turn around.
Thumb – clap your hands.
Pinky is moving so touch the ground.
Can you do their motions?
Can you do their grooves?
Watch the monkey that moves.
Thumb – clap your hands.
Pinky is moving so touch the ground.
Pointer – jump; Ring man – bend.
Tall man – turn around.
Can you do their motions?
Can you do their grooves?
Watch the monkey that moves.
Here is A Monkey
Here is a monkey, monkey, monkey.
Here is a monkey. Now there’s two.
Here are two monkeys, monkeys, monkeys
Here are two monkeys. Now there’s three.
(etc., up to five)
Here are 5 monkeys, monkeys, monkeys (2x)
Here are 5 monkeys, and no more.
Five Monkeys Swinging in a Tree
Five little monkeys swinging in a tree,
Teasing Mr. Alligator “Can’t catch me!”
Mr. Alligator swam along slighly and “SNAP!”
He took a monkey from the tree. EE! Oh oh
Four little monkeys etc all the way down to one
One little monkey sat up in that tree.
Said “Mr. Alligator, you won’t get me.
I saw my friends teasing you and
I learned, that’s not what to do.
Mr. Gator, your monkey eating is through.
Five Little Monkeys
Five little monkeys jumping on the bed.
One fell off and bumped his head.
Mama called the doctor and the doctor said,
“Keep those monkeys off the bed!”
(All the way down to one)
One little monkey jumping on the bed.
He fell off and bumped his head.
Mama called the doctor and the doctor said,
“No more monkeys jumping on the bed!”
