Artist/Band: Hooters
Lyrics for Song: Mr. Big Baboon
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Hooters



A great bear in the woods wants all he sees
From the snakes in the grass to the chimpanzees
We all know it ain't fair, it's a jungle out there

So go bang your drum, Mr. Big Baboon
What monkey see monkey will do
Boom boom boom boom, Mr. Big Baboon

Mad dog on the prowl sees the bear in the trees
They can never be friends, they're natural enemies
So you better beware, it's a jungle out there

So go bang your drum, Mr. Big Baboon
What monkey see monkey will do
Boom boom boom boom, Mr. Big Baboon

SOLO

Mr. Big Baboon sees the dog and bear
It's a three way tie, it's a stalemate there
Facin' off eye to eye, it's a jungle out there

So go bang your drum, Mr. Big Baboon
What monkey see monkey will do
Boom boom boom boom, Mr. Big Baboon

So bang your drum, Mr. Big Baboon
You can all join in, monkey see monkey do
Boom boom boom boom, Mr. Big Baboon


Mr. Big Baboon

Hooters' 1972 single "Mr. Big Baboon" stands as a defining example of the band's unique blend of psychedelic rock and blues-infused pop. Released during the height of the English underground scene, the track showcases the group's signature sound, characterized by driving rhythms, soaring vocals, and a distinctively British edge. While the song lacks a specific album title in public records, it remains a staple of their discography, often cited alongside contemporaries like "Twenty Five Hours A Day" and "Johnny B" as key releases from their early career. The recording captures the raw energy and experimental spirit of the era, reflecting the band's ability to merge traditional rock structures with progressive elements. Its enduring popularity highlights Hooters' significant influence on the post-punk and alternative rock movements that followed, cementing their legacy as one of the most innovative acts of the early 1970s.
