Four Little Monkeys

Four little monkeys jumping on the bed
'Till one fell off and hit his head
He went to the doctor but the doctor said
"You knew what you were doing jumping on that bed."

So that poor little monkey went back to the bed
To see if the others fell and hurt their heads
"We're fine," said one as he continued to jump
Leaving our poor monkey to nurse his bump.

The monkey heard a creak and the bed began to crack
He said, "Look what we did, you're gonna break your backs!"
"We're fine," said another, "you worry too much!
Come back and join us, you'll be fine with your crutch."

"It's gotten worse since the fall, I think it's reached my brain.
But you have your fun, I don't mean to complain."
Hoping all the others had some care to give
But they only kept on jumping, merely saying, "You'll live."

The monkey felt sick, so he went on home
A loss of appetite, feeling so alone
He felt it getting worse, splitting his lobes in two
With no doctors and no friends, he didn't know what to do.

Three little monkeys jumping on a broken bed
Forgetting one had fallen off and destroyed his head
To stop the split the poor monkey slit his wrist
All while the other three kiss, kiss, kissed.
