    Three monkeys sat in a coconut tree
    Discussing things as they are said to be.
    Said one to the other, "Now listen, you two,
    "There's a rumor around that can't be true
    "That man descended from our noble race
    "The very idea is a great disgrace
    "No monkey has ever deserted his wife
    "Starved her babies and ruined her life
    "And you'll never know a mother monk
    "To leave her babies with others to bunk
    "Or pass from one to another
    "Till they scarcely know their mother
    "Here's another thing a monkey won't do
    "Go out at night and get on a stew
    "Or use a gun or club or knife
    "To take some other monkey's life
    "Yes, man descended, the ornery cuss
    "But, brother, he didn't descend from us."
