Lyrics for Song: Mickey's Monkey [Stereo Mix][#][*]
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Smokey Robinson
This cat named Mickey came from out of town, yea!
He was spreading a new dance all around
In just a matter of a few days, yea!
His dance became the new teenage craze.
When the people see him dancing,
They begin to see,
To see this cat do that monkey thing.
It's really something to see,
This cat named Mickey
Doing the monkey.
Come on, let's do Mickey's monkey, children,
Yea, let's do Mickey's monkey, children
Lum di lum di lie
Lum di lum di lie
Lum di lum di lie
Lum di lum di lie
Lum di lum di lie
Lum di lum di lie
Lum di lum di lie
Oh,
Monkey see, monkey do,
Come on, you can do the monkey, children
Yea, you're doing Mickey's monkey, children,
Do the monkey, Mickey's monkey
Oh, do the monkey, Mickey's monkey
Mickey's monkey

As a staple of his discography, the song showcases his versatility as both a lead vocalist and a songwriter, capturing the playful yet romantic spirit often found in his work during this prolific period. The stereo mix enhances the original recording's dynamic range, offering a polished listening experience that highlights the intricate interplay between Robinson's voice and the band's tight instrumentation. It remains a beloved track within the broader canon of classic soul music, frequently referenced in retrospectives on the genre's golden age. |
