Little Monkey is too small to duplicate Big Hippo's mighty splash to gain the admiration of his jungle friends, but he finds his own way to impress.

Little Monkey - Lyrics
©2026 by Monty Harper

Little Monkey lives in the jungle. Little Monkey swims in the river bend.
Little Monkey loves Big Hippo. Big Hippo loves to set the trend.
Big Hippo climbs up the bank, then leaps off with panache.
Big Hippo slams in the water to make a mighty splash! It makes the

Tadpoles flip; it makes the warthogs grin.
It makes the hornbills flap and it makes
All the jungle young’ns yell, “Do it again!”
All the jungle young’ns yell, “Do it again! Do it again!”

Little Monkey jumps in the water. Little Monkey’s splash has no affect.
Little Monkey jumps even farther. Little Monkey still gets no respect.
Big Hippo says, little buddy, it seems you’re just too small.
Little Monkey says, I can’t help it. That’s not fair at all! I wanna make the

Tadpoles flip; I wanna make the warthogs grin.
I wanna make the hornbills flap; I wanna make
All the jungle young’ns yell, “Do it again!”
All the jungle young’ns yell, “Do it again! Do it again!”

Little Monkey climbs up a jungle tree.
Little Monkey calls from way up high.
Big Hippo says you won’t splash like me,
Even if you jump down from the sky.

You’ll never make the
Tadpoles flip; you’ll never make the warthogs grin.
You’ll never make the hornbills flap; You’ll never make
All the jungle young’ns yell, “Do it again!”

Little Monkey stands on the tree limb. Little Monkey ignores Big Hippo’s jive.
Little Monkey’s knees do a mighty bend. Little Monkey leaps into a dive.
Little Monkey somersaults and plunges with panache.
Little Monkey slices the water, with no hint of a splash! It makes the

Tadpoles flip; it makes the warthogs grin.
It makes the hornbills flap and it makes
All the jungle young’ns yell, “Do it again!”
All the jungle young’ns yell, “Do it again! Do it again!”

Little Monkey dines on the glory, dines on the glory all day.
