Tessa Violet - I Wan'na Be Like You Lyrics

Tessa Violet Lyrics

"I Wan'na Be Like You"
(originally by Louis Prima, Bruce Reitherman & Phil Harris)

Now, I'm the king of the swingers, uh
The jungle VIP
I've reached the top and I had to stop
And that's what's botherin' me
I wanna be a man, man-cub
And stroll right into town
And be just like the other men
I'm tired of monkeyin' around

Oh, ooo-bee-doo I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you-ooo
You'll see it's true
A man like me
Can learn to be
Human too

Now, don't try to kid me, man-cub
I'll make a deal with you
What I desire is man's red fire
To make my dream come true
Now gimme the secret, man-cub
Show me what to do
Give me the power of man's red flower
So I can be like you

Oh, ooo-bee-doo I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you-ooo
You'll see it's true
A man like me
Can learn to be
Human too

Now, I'm the king of the swingers, uh
The jungle VIP
I've reached the top and I had to stop
And that's what's botherin' me

Ooo-bee-doo (Ooo-bee-doobee-doo)
I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you-ooo
You'll see it's true
A man like me
Can learn to be
Human too

Ooo-bee-doobee-doo
Ooo-bee-doo (Ooo-bee-doobee-doo)
I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you
Talk like humans too
