Walt Disney Records - I Wan'na Be Like You lyrics

[Verse 1] Now I'm the king of the swingers Oh, the jungle VIP I've reached the top and had to stop And that's what botherin' me I wanna be a man, mancub And stroll right into town And be just like the other men I'm tired of monkeyin' around! [Chorus] Oh, oobee doo I wanna be like you I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too You'll see it's true someone like me Can learn to be someone like you [Verse 2] Now don't try to kid me, mancub I'll make a deal with you What I desire is man's red fire To make my dream come true Now, give me the secret, mancub Come on, clue me what to do Give me the power of man's red flower So I can be like you [Chorus] Oh, oobee doo I wanna be like you I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too You'll see it's true someone like me Can learn to be someone like you [Verse 3] Now you might think it's ridiculous That me, a gigantipithicus Would ever dream I'd like to team With the likes of you, mancub But together, we'd have powers All the jungle's treasures, ours I got desire, you got the fire But the dream I dream takes two [Chorus] So, ooh, I wanna be like you I wanna use that flame just the same Oh, how magnificus it would be A gigantipithicus like me Could learn to do like you humans do Can learn to be like someone like you Can learn to be like someone like me
