The first mate is a monkey

The leader of the crew

He was born to pirate the seas

He'd rather sail on the wild ocean blue

Than to swing in the coconut trees

Oh how that monkey climbs

Up in record time

So we call him Prime Mate

The ship's cook is a parrot

What a chatty bird

He's always fast with a quip

Each morning he'd ask him

Monkey what's the word

Oh they had the greatest friendship

He made banana stew

For the cap n' crew

I think you'd like a taste too

The first mate is a monkey

Say aye aye sir

He was born in the jungle

With big ears and a long long tail

The first mate is a monkey

Tell you why sir

The monkey is a pirate

Who was made to live on the seas

And always sail

Well we docked down in Rio on a windy day

The monkey was keeping an eye

Parrot said monkey there's nothing more to say

So it's time for this parrot to fly

The monkey shed a tear for his old buccaneer

And said let's sail out of here

The first mate is a monkey

Say aye aye sir

He was born in the jungle

With big ears and a long long tail

The first mate is a monkey

Tell you why sir

The monkey is a pirate

Who was made to live on the seas

And always sail
