Monkey girl played the saxophone.

 But what she desired was a banana phone.

She traded her horn one day after school,

and harboring fantasies of The Golden Rule,

called her boyfriend first things first

(and her mother next so she wouldn't curse).

"I got me a freakin banana phone! 

And now when you're gone I won't be alone!"

She said to her significant other,

and then like a good girl she phoned her mother.

"I bought a phone.  Twas the fruit de jour! 

I'm not sure what all of those lessons were for."

"I know you wanted me to play the sax,

but when Nanny made those sock dolls for me last Xmas,

I knew for sure and  confirmed today,

that a Banana phone was the only way

I could make it is this big bad world."

After hanging up and admiring her purchase,

She took her phone and sat on the terrace.

And there, in the twilight of the night,

she sang the song that gave her Fight.

For Gwen Stefani was her choice,

"I ain't no hollerback girl"! 

She shouted with strong voice.

And so was well with Monkey Girl,

her banana, her boyfriend, and the entire world.
