Lyrics

Cher was busy, so I got a BETTER Cher to do this! Thanks Kj; apparently it's one of TK's favorites.

If you’re bored of the racket on the usual show
And you expect each DC squad to curl up and choke
Grandpa’s here to lighten your mood!
Bitch about the weather
Beg a bunch of Littles to send him food

Monkeys ain’t chimpanzees
You won’t believe the stuff he’s throwing down
He don’t know monkeys ain’t chimpanzees
Still every day all the Littles gather round
To hear an orange clown

Once wrote for Style and sports columns too
Now that’s all done. Have we mentioned Raju?
Now he only yacks on ESPN
Sidekick with an accent
A newscaster who laughs at all the tragic events

Monkeys aren’t chimpanzees
You won’t believe the stuff he’s throwing down
(fade)

    I'm way behind on this site. So many jingles, so little time! It's always a blast to team up with Brad and this one was no exception. Thanks for the kind words, guys!
