Five Little Monkeys

These Five Little Monkeys may be naughty, but their song is truly captivating!

Children’s song, U.K.

“Five Little Monkeys” is a “repetitive” nursery rhyme, that means the text stays same for every turn, with only a small part of a verse changing every time. The song is about five playful monkeys who pretend they are going to bed, but they act silly instead and jump on the bed. One by one they fall from the bed and get hurt.

Other songs in the same form are “Baby Bumblebee”, “If You’re Happy and You Know It”, “Rain, Rain, Go Away”, “Wheels on the Bus”, “Old MacDonald had a Farm” and “Finger Family“.

Lyrics

1. Five little monkeys jumping on the bed
One fell off and bumped his head
So Momma called the doctor and the doctor said:
“No more monkeys jumping on the bed!”

2. Four little monkeys jumping on the bed
One fell off and bumped his head
So Momma called the doctor and the doctor said:
“No more monkeys jumping on the bed!”

3. Three little monkeys jumping on the bed
One fell off and bumped his head
So Momma called the doctor and the doctor said:
“No more monkeys jumping on the bed!”

4. Two little monkeys jumping on the bed
One fell off and bumped his head
So Momma called the doctor and the doctor said:
“No more monkeys jumping on the bed!”

5. One little monkey jumping on the bed
He fell off and bumped his head
So Momma called the doctor and the doctor said:
“No more monkeys jumping on the bed!”

6. No little monkeys jumping on the bed
None fell off and bumped his head
So Momma called the doctor and the doctor said:
“Put those monkeys back in bed!”
