I will build a little house
With two chimneys tall
A little sloping roof
And a garden wall
Two broad gates that open wide
And two tiny little windows
You can peep inside
I will build a little table
Just for two
Two tiny little chairs
One for me and one for you
Open the door and come right in
For my tiny little house
Shines like a bright new pin

I like bananas, monkey nuts and grapes (x3)
That's why they call me Tarzan of the apes
I like bananas, monkey nuts and... UH! (x3)
That's why they call me Tarzan of the apes
I like bananas, monkey nuts and grapes (x3)
That's why they call me Tarzan of the apes
I like bananas, monkey nuts and grapes (x3)
That's why they call me Tarzan of the apes

I dig my garden dig dig dig
I dig my garden dig it deep
I plant some seeds and watch them grow, but
along comes a rabbit, oh no
He ate my carrots munch munch munch
He ate my carrots he ate a whole bunch
I run to the garden and shu shu shu, but
the rabbit is in my patch, oh what shall I do?
