Tom T. Hall - The Monkey That Became President слова песни




I was there on the day the monkey came into this worldHis face was round and reddish and his hair was slightly curledHe didnt look too different from the others I had seenWhod-a-thought he was the answer to the nations dream? At first he didnt seem to be intelligent at allEach time hed start to walk about hed stumble and hed fallMy first impression was to be a most mistaken thoughtLord amighty, whats this little hairy monkey wrought? Because I witnessed his departure from his mothers wombI felt inclined to check his progress every afternoonOne day the keeper of the zoo called in the live tv"frankly said, I think youll be amazed at what you see".The monkey walked and talked and waved his arms about his headIn the corner was the stack of books that he had read"an educated monkey!" said the papers cross the landIt was more than weary sociologists could standOh, his fame was universal, he was on the carson howPeople talked about him kindly everywhere hed goHis insight was amazing, his philosophy was fairHe became a politician welcome everywhereHis wit was not to be compared with any mind intactHed lace a phrase with irony and blend it all with factConservatives applauded and the liberals were entrancedThe bigots and the integrationists were in his campNobody dared to meet him in an open press debateHe was nominated by the folks from every stateYes, a monkey was the president, though maybe not the firstAnd there was peace and harmony throughout the universeThe dream I had last night has been related as it cameAs for interpretation, well, its really very plainWould you rather have a monkey up in washington, d.c.Or have those people making monkeys out of you and me?
