Now three monkeys sat in a coconut tree

Discussing things as they are said to be
按照他们说的那样讨论事情
Said one to other now listen you two

There's a certain rumour that can't be true
有一种传言不可能是真的
That man descended from our noble race

Why the very idea is a big disgrace
为什么这种想法是一种耻辱
No monkey ever deserted his wife
没人会抛弃他的妻子
Starved her baby and ruined her life
饿死她的孩子毁掉她的人生
Yeah the monkey speaks his mind
猴子吐露心声
And you've never known a mother monk
你从来不认识一个修女
To leave the babies with others to bunk
把孩子留给别人照顾
And passed them on from one to another
将它们一个接一个地传递下去
Till they scarcely knew who was their mother
直到他们几乎不知道谁是他们的母亲
Yeah the monkey speak his mind
这只猴子说出了他的心声
And another thing you will never see
还有一件事你永远不会明白
A monkey build a fence around a coconut tree

And let all the coconuts go to waste
让所有的椰子都白白浪费
Forbidding all other monkeys to come and taste

Why if I put a fence around this tree

Starvation would force you to steal from me

Here's another thing a monkey won't do

Go out on a night and get all in a stew

Or use a gun or a club or a knife

To take another monkey's life

Yes man descended the worthless bum
没错哥们放下那没用的
But brothers from us he did not come
但是我们的兄弟他没有来
Yea the monkey speaks his mind
猴子吐露心声
