El mono

I went to an orphanage
and what did I see
tiny little monkeys
both wild and free

One monkey said hi
And it was obvious to me
Julio and Julia
Were meant to be

We picked the flowers
For pigs to eat
Yellow, red, and white
We gave them a treat

Then away we raced
Running through the field
Over fences,under branches
To no one we’d yield

Up the trees we went
Nothing we couldn’t do
Climbing higher while eating
leaves,guava, and limes too

In the trees we stayed and
More monkeys came to hang
To music we all related
So we sat there and sang

We were having fun
Then time ran out
Though all were great
Julio was best, no doubt

For this monkey loved to play
Using nature as his toy
But as we turned to leave
This monkey turned back into a boy
