Escaped Monkey

 I admire you Mr Monkey. 

Escaping like you did. 

Did you climb the fences Mr Monkey? 

Or burrow through a hole? 

Where were you going Mr Monkey? 

Back home to Japan? 

Were you going to the airport Mr Monkey? 

Or just for a little stroll?

Were you hungry Mr Monkey? 

Is that why you ate the bird nuts? 

I don’t blame you for escaping Mr Monkey

You were just avoiding a fight. 

I don’t like fights either Mr Monkey

Turn my stomach upside down.

That’s what we tell our kids Mr Monkey

Turn and run away! 

Were you lonely Mr Monkey? 

On your 5 day trek? 

Were you puffed out Mr Monkey? 

Your face was awfully red. 

Did you miss your mates Mr Monkey? 

Were you crying deep inside? 

Did the tranquilliser hurt Mr Monkey? 

That awful grass telling where you were. 

You’re probably best back in the zoo Mr Monkey

Away from that fun cancelling Tory Lampard

Do you prefer the zoo Mr Monkey? 

You’d die back in the wild. 

You can’t hunt Mr Monkey 

Your food is on a plate. 

You don’t know this Mr Monkey 

But your life is all fake

You live in an animal prison Mr Monkey

I’m not surprised you escaped 

Try again Mr Monkey 

Try with all your might. 

Board a plane Mr Monkey 

Back to Japan. 

Disguise yourself Mr Monkey

With glasses, a paper and a pipe. 

You never know Mr Monkey, 

You simply never know
