Gorilla In A Kid Costume

Yes, I am a kid.
I am a kid just like you –
OOO – OOO! AAH – AAH! – ahem,
I mean, how do you do?

What do you mean I am different-
And I don’t look like the rest?
Don’t all other kids have
A hair-covered chest?

Surely I’m not the only kid
With hands that look like feet,
And so what if bananas
Are the only things I eat.

I am a kid just like you-
Through and through AND THROUGH-
OOO – OOO! AAH – AAH! – ahem,
I mean, nice to meet you!
