Lyrics
Gil: Who's that swinging up in the trees
Eating fruit and nuts and leaves?
These big gorillas can't be beat
The greatest apes you'll ever meet
Deema: Everybody go bananas!
Gil, Zooli, and Molly: A-whoa-oh-oh!
Gil: There's a party in the jungle, and I wanna go
Gil, Zooli, and Molly: Everybody put your hands up! Just like ours!
Gil: Give me two thumbs up and let me hear it now
All: Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh!
Gil: Hey, gorilla in the trees
Won't you sing your song with me?
And show me how the great apes do
All: Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh!
Gil: Hey, gorilla on the ground
Let's make a big gorilla sound
Now all you primates in the troop
All: Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh!
Zooli: In groups called troops, they live in packs
And we call the grown-up male gorillas silverbacks
With leaves and branches, they can make a nest
And when they wanna show off, they beat on their chest
Deema: (imitating Tarzan call) Ohhh a-oh a-ohhhh...!
Everybody go bananas!
Gil, Zooli, and Molly: A-whoa-oh-oh!
Gil: A coat of thick black hair from their head to toe
Gil, Zooli, and Molly: Everybody put your hands up!
Gil: High-five, dude!
Molly: Down low, too slow!
Gil: Hey, gorilla in the trees
Won't you sing your song with me?
And show me how the great apes do
All: Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh!
Gil: Hey, gorilla on the ground
Let's make a big gorilla sound
Now all you primates in the troop
All: Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh!
