[Am]Down at the zoo, [G]there isn�t any noise
[Em]It�s much too early, [G]for girls and boys
[Am]The monkeys have a plan, [G]but you mustn�t say a word
[Em]They�re going to do it quietly, [G]so they can�t be heard

[F]They�re sawing through the bars
[C]They�re climbing out the cage
[G]They�re tiptoeing past the zoo keeper
[F]They�re running out the gates

[C]Because today [G]the monkeys are [F]breaking out the [C]zoo (x2)

[Am]The zoo keeper�s sleeping, [G]he hasn�t heard a thing
[Em]All of the monkeys, [G]escaping
[Am]When he wakes up, [G]he�s going to get a shock
[Em]He�s lost all the monkeys, [G]and they won�t come back

[F]They�re skipping down the street
[C]They�re beating on their chests
[G]They�re laughing and screeching
[F]And scratching their heads

[C]Because today [G]the monkeys are [F]breaking out the [C]zoo (x4)

[Am]If you plan to go, [G]to the zoo today
[Em]You won�t see monkeys, [G]cuz they�ve gone away

[F]They�re heading for the mountains
[C]They�re heading for the trees 
[G]They�re happy just to run around
[F]And they�re happy to be free

[F]Some are hailing taxis
[C]Some are riding bikes
[G]Some are swimming rivers
[F]Some are flying kites

[F]Now they�re jumping 
[C]And swinging from the trees
[G]Rolling on the floor
[F]And picking out the fleas

[C]Because today [G]the monkeys have [F]broken out the [C]zoo (x8)
