In the cool of the banana tree On the rugged trail toward the A child of the century A dried up Goliath and a weasel Fee
Far away in another A fading named Milly Grace A gospel singer with pocks on her And a bamboo to help her keep the pace
Fee was a prodigy Long the age of maturity Someday he knew it set him free it did for Floyd the chimpanzee

Oh, Fee, you're trying to live a That's free. You're racing the wind, you're flirting with death So have a cup of coffee and catch breath
Fee first met Milly in a bar in His was jumping like a kangaroo Like a in a cage in an old Dutch zoo It was hopping and in wooden shoes
But Floyd was and alone He wanted for his own A desperate craving in his "Their love", he said, "I not condone"
one day on a ship to Quebec Floyd Milly on a lover's trek He up a bottle and broke off the neck It sliced the air, and Fee hit the deck

Oh, Fee, you're trying to live a completely free Floyd is dead, nothing but a ripple 'Cause Milly that paper and sliced him on the nipple
Oh, Fee, you're trying to live a completely free. You're with the wind, you're flirting with death So have a cup of coffee and catch breath
