Capo 6 to play along with this live video from 2010: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKmO0RA-nP0 Playing notes from the video linked above: For the chords with 1 asterisk in Verse 2 he strums the chord once then mutes the strings and continues strumming the rhythm. On the N.C. at the end of verse 2 he mutes the strings strums 1 time speaks the line and then strums the rhythm on muted strings until the first chord of the next chorus. For the chords with 2 asterisks in the Outro he just strums the chord 1 time. [Chorus] And I say Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay Ee-ee-ee-ee-ee Could a cheeky little monkey like me Come and pla-ay-ay-ay-ay Oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh With a cheeky little monkey like you [Verse 1] Well I’m a cheeky little monkey and I live in a tree Don’t come too close ’cos I think I’ve got fleas And I throw my own shit at people that I don’t like But I’m a cheeky little monkey and I cheeky around I’m the cheekiest monkey in this whole damn town And I’ve got two monkey seats on this cheeky bike [Chorus] And I say Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay Ee-ee-ee-ee-ee Could a cheeky little monkey like me Come and pla-ay-ay-ay-ay Oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh With a cheeky little monkey like you [Verse 2] Well I’m a cheeky little monkey and I’m up for a laugh But the hippo is grumpy and so’s the giraffe And the zebras are boring ’cos they just eat grass And I know this is cheeky but I thought that I’d ask ’Cos I’ve seen you up there in your big monkey tree And you look like a pretty sweet monkey to me N.C. N.C. So I thought "If you weren’t busy later maybe we could just throw shit at people" [Chorus] And I say Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay Ee-ee-ee-ee-ee Could a cheeky little monkey like me Come and pla-ay-ay-ay-ay Oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh With a cheeky little monkey like you (Spoken) One more time and then we’re done... [Outro] And I say Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay Ee-ee-ee-ee-ee Could a cheeky little monkey like me Come and pla-ay-ay-ay-ay Oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh With a cheeky little monkey like you

Cette chanson évoque un petit singe espiègle qui s’amuse à vivre dans un arbre, tout en montrant son caractère facétieux. Il se décrit avec humour, en précisant qu'il n’hésite pas à taquiner ceux qui l’entourent. Au fil des couplets, il partage son envie de s’amuser et de se lier d’amitié avec un autre singe qu’il trouve sympathique. Il fait preuve d’audace en proposant une petite série de farces, laissant entrevoir un esprit ludique et insouciant. Le contexte de cette pièce musicale nous plonge dans un univers léger et amusant, où la joie et la complicité des animaux sont mises à l’honneur. On peut ressentir une atmosphère de camaraderie et de drôlerie, ce qui reflète bien le caractère bon enfant de l’artiste et son approche décalée de la vie.
