The Monkey Song

"I'm no kin to the monkey, no-no-no/
The monkey's no kin to me, yeah-yeah-yeah/
I don't know much about his ancestors
but mine didn't swing from a tree."


Yes, these are the real lyrics to a catchy little tune, "The Monkey Song," sung by no other than actress Crystal Bernard ("Wings") and her sister, Robin. The song appears on the LP, Dr. Jerry Falwell: Feudin' Fussin' & Frettin' (Fret Not) (Thomas Road Baptist Church) 1972...you can't make this up.

There's also another cute little ditty titled, "The Ecumenical Movement" on the same LP.

You don't have to purchase the album, however, to enjoy them. Just go to www.ubu.com/outsiders/365/03-2.html and you can listen to a strange song every day of the year, including one by Louis Farrakhan called "Is She Is, Or Is She Ain't?" about falling for a transvestite, and William Shatner singing "Rocket Man."

Don't say I didn't warn ya.
