Song Lyrics

Alright, is everybody ready
Alright now, here we go
A one, a two, a one, two, three, four

Lum de Lum de la iiiiii, (Lum de Lum de la iiiiii,)
Lum de Lum de la iiiiii, (Lum de Lum de la iiiiii,)

This cat named mickey came from out of town
He been spreadin this new dance all around
And in just a matter of a few days
this dance became the new teen craze

The people see him dancin they begin to see
See this cat do that monkey thing
It's really something to see
This cat named Mickey's doin that monkey

C'mon and do the Mickey's monkey
Children, let's do the Mickey's monkey
Let's do the Mickey's monkey
Children, let's do the Mickey's monkey

Lum de Lum de la iiiiii, (Lum de Lum de la iiiiii,)
Lum de Lum de la iiiiii, (Lum de Lum de la iiiiii,)

[Music Interlude]

Lum de Lum de la iiiiii, (Lum de Lum de la iiiiii,)
Lum de Lum de la iiiiii, (Lum de Lum de la iiiiii,)

Monkey see, monkey do
C'mon you can do the monkey too
C'mon doin the Mickey's monkey
doin Mickey and the monkey
Do the monkey (do the monkey)
Let's do the monkey (do the monkey)
Do the monkey (do the monkey)
Let's do the monkey (do the monkey)
Mickeys's monkey (mickey's monkey)
Mickeys's monkey (mickey's monkey)

[Fade]

Lum de Lum de la iiiiii, (Lum de Lum de la iiiiii,)
Lum de Lum de la iiiiii, (Lum de Lum de la iiiiii,)
