A Tiger and a Monkey and Me

Look what followed me home, home from the zoo
 It's a great big tiger and a monkey, too
 They're the best of friends, friends since they were babies long ago
 Hey look what followed me home, they look hungry can I feed 'em?
 They're so cute. I wonder can I keep 'em?
 We'll be the best of friends, a tiger and a monkey and me
 Swinging through the trees, happy as can be
 Or riding on a tiger, no one will mess with me
 We'll be the best of friends, a tiger and a monkey and me
 A tiger and a monkey and me
 The tiger says they named him Elvis
 'cause he was always kind of chunky
 He used to run with cool cats, but now he prefers the monkey
 They're the best of friends, friends since they were babies long ago
 And the monkey says hoo-hoo-hee-ha-ha, but what he really means to say
 Is he's very glad to meet you. Can you come out and play?
 Don't be afraid, it's just a tiger and a monkey and me
 Swinging through the trees, happy as can be
 Or riding on a tiger, no one will mess with me
 We'll be the best of friends, a tiger and a monkey and me
 A tiger and a monkey and me
 Elvis can sleep by the fireplace
 He looks like a rug lying on the floor
 The monkey wants to hang out on the coat rack
 So he can climb on my back when I walk out the door
 Now look what followed me home
 Elvis can sleep by the fireplace
 He looks like a rug lying on the floor
 The monkey wants to hang out on the coat rack
 So he can climb on my back when I walk out the door
 Now look what followed me home, home from the zoo
 It's a great big tiger and a monkey, too
 They're the best of friends, friends since they were babies long ago
 We'll need a hundred pounds of cat food, bananas by the dozen
 When my Daddy saw the monkey he thought it was my cousin
 That'd make Dad a monkey's uncle
 A tiger and a monkey and me
 Swinging through the trees, happy as can be
 Or riding on a tiger, no one will mess with me
 We'll be the best of friends, a tiger and a monkey and me
 A tiger and a monkey and me
 A tiger and a monkey and me
