Aba Daba Honeymoon (from 'Two Weeks With Love')

Way down in the Congoland
Lived a happy chimpanzee.
She loved a monkey with long tail
(Lordy, how she loved him!)
Each night he would find her there,
Swinging in the cocoanut tree,
And the monkey gay,
At the break of day,
Loved to hear his Chimpie say:

"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Said the Chimpie to the Monk,
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Said the Monkey to the Chimp.
All night long they'd chatter away,
All day long there were happy and gay,
Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way.
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Means "Monk, I love but you."
"Baba, daba, dab," in monkey talk
Means "Chimp, I love you, too."
Then the big baboon one night in June,
He married them and very soon,
They went upon their aba, daba honeymoon.

"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Said the Chimpie to the Monk,
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Said the Monkey to the Chimp.
All night long they'd chatter away,
All day long there were happy and gay,
Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way.
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Means "Monk, I love but you."
"Baba, daba, dab," in monkey talk
Means "Chimp, I love you, too."
One night they were made man and wife,
And now they cry, "This is the life,"
Since they came from their aba, daba honeymoon.

Well, you should have heard that band
Play upon their wedding day,
Each Chimp and Monkey had nutshells
(Lordy, how they played them)
And now it is ev'ry night,
High up in the cocoanut tree.
It's the same old thing,
With the same old swing,
When the Monk and Chimpie sing:

"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Said the Chimpie to the Monk,
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Said the Monkey to the Chimp.
All night long they'd chatter away,
All day long there were happy and gay,
Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way.
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Means "Monk, I love but you."
"Baba, daba, dab," in monkey talk
Means "Chimp, I love you, too."
Then the big baboon one night in June,
He married them and very soon,
They went upon their aba, daba honeymoon.

"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Said the Chimpie to the Monk,
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Said the Monkey to the Chimp.
All night long they'd chatter away,
All day long there were happy and gay,
Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way.
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Means "Monk, I love but you."
"Baba, daba, dab," in monkey talk
Means "Chimp, I love you, too."
One night they were made man and wife,
And now they cry, "This is the life,"
Since they came from their aba, daba honeymoon.

Aba Daba Honeymoon (extrait de 'Two Weeks With Love')

Au fin fond du Congo
Vivait un joyeux chimpanzé.
Elle aimait un singe à la longue queue
(Mon Dieu, comme elle l'aimait !)
Chaque nuit, il la trouvait là,
Se balançant dans le cocotier,
Et le singe gai,
Au point du jour,
Aimait entendre sa Chimpie dire :

"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Dit le Chimpie au Monk,
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Dit le Singe au Chimp.
Toute la nuit, ils bavardaient,
Toute la journée, ils étaient heureux et gais,
Se balançant et chantant à leur façon.
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Signifie "Monk, je n'aime que toi."
"Baba, daba, dab," en langage de singe
Signifie "Chimp, je t'aime aussi."
Puis le grand babouin un soir de juin,
Il les a mariés et très vite,
Ils sont partis pour leur lune de miel.

"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Dit le Chimpie au Monk,
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Dit le Singe au Chimp.
Toute la nuit, ils bavardaient,
Toute la journée, ils étaient heureux et gais,
Se balançant et chantant à leur façon.
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Signifie "Monk, je n'aime que toi."
"Baba, daba, dab," en langage de singe
Signifie "Chimp, je t'aime aussi."
Un soir, ils sont devenus mari et femme,
Et maintenant ils crient, "C'est la vie,"
Depuis qu'ils sont revenus de leur lune de miel.

Eh bien, vous auriez dû entendre ce groupe
Jouer le jour de leur mariage,
Chaque chimpanzé et chaque singe avaient des coquilles de noix
(Mon Dieu, comme ils les jouaient)
Et maintenant c'est tous les soirs,
Tout en haut dans le cocotier.
C'est la même vieille chose,
Avec le même vieux swing,
Quand le Monk et le Chimpie chantent :

"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Dit le Chimpie au Monk,
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Dit le Singe au Chimp.
Toute la nuit, ils bavardaient,
Toute la journée, ils étaient heureux et gais,
Se balançant et chantant à leur façon.
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Signifie "Monk, je n'aime que toi."
"Baba, daba, dab," en langage de singe
Signifie "Chimp, je t'aime aussi."
Puis le grand babouin un soir de juin,
Il les a mariés et très vite,
Ils sont partis pour leur lune de miel.

"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Dit le Chimpie au Monk,
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Dit le Singe au Chimp.
Toute la nuit, ils bavardaient,
Toute la journée, ils étaient heureux et gais,
Se balançant et chantant à leur façon.
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Signifie "Monk, je n'aime que toi."
"Baba, daba, dab," en langage de singe
Signifie "Chimp, je t'aime aussi."
Un soir, ils sont devenus mari et femme,
Et maintenant ils crient, "C'est la vie,"
Depuis qu'ils sont revenus de leur lune de miel.
