I Dont Wanna Be Like You Blue Illusion

Written By Monday, July 18, 2022 Add Comment Edit

"I Wanna Be Like You (The Monkey Song)", or simply "I Wanna Be Like You", is a song from the 1967 Disney animated film The Jungle Book. It features the King Louie and his monkeys singing to a captured Mowgli, charming him and trying to get him to tell the secret of how to make fire so they may use it to rule the jungle. The song was performed by Louie's voice actor, the late Louis Prima, and the late Phil Harris, the voice of Baloo.

The song was used again in the 2003 animated sequel The Jungle Book 2; while King Louie never made an appearance, the song was performed by American band Smash Mouth over the end credits.

In 2016, Disney remade The Jungle Book as a live-action film. The song was used again with additional lyrics, and was performed by King Louie's voice actor Christopher Walken.

Lyrics

Bu-ba-do-do-do-be-do

Now I'm the king of the swingers, whoa
The jungle VIP
I've reached the top and had to stop
And that's what botherin' me
I wanna be a man, mancub
And stroll right into town
And be just like the other men
I'm tired of monkeyin' around!

Oh, ooh-bee-doo,
(Oop-dee-wee)
I wanna be like you
(Hop-dee-doo-bee-do-bow)
I wanna walk like you
(Cheep)
Talk like you

[Now here's your part of the deal, cuz. Lay the secret on me of man's red fire.]

['But I don't know how to make fire!]

Now you might think it's ridiculous
That me, a Gigantopithecus
Would ever dream, I'd like to team
The likes of you, mancub
But together, we'd have powers
All the jungle's treasures ours
I got desire, you've got the fire
But the dream I dream takes two!

So, oooh,
I wanna be like you
I wanna use that flame
Just the same
You can do it, too
Oh, how magnifiecus it would be
A Gigantopithecus like me
Could learn to do
Like you humans do
Can learn to be
Like someone
Like you
Can learn to be
Like someone
Like me!
