From the recording Rainbows and Sunshine

🎶 Swing into the Caribbean rhythm of the most delightful tune in town! It's time to groove to the beat of "Five Green Monkeys" by award-winning Rainbows and Sunshine! 🐵🎶

Picture this: Five green monkeys, the coolest crew around, kicking off their day with endless adventures! 🌟 Four of them start the fun up high in a tree, swinging and laughing in perfect harmony. But wait, one sneaks off to the zoo, leaving only two! 🙊

Now it's just a dynamic duo basking in the sunshine, soaking up the warmth and joy. But hold on tight, because one more monkey slips away, leaving just one lonely pal behind. 🌞

But fear not, the excitement's not over! That lone monkey discovers a canoe and calls a friend to hop in – and just like that, they're back to two! 🛶 Splish-splash, they dive into the sea, meeting a friend and making it a trio, then a quartet, and suddenly, they're a fabulous foursome again! 🏖️

And guess what? The fun's not done! They hit the road, and voilà, they reunite with their fifth mate! 🚗 All together once more, they plan to meet up and relive the joyous journey again and again! 🎉

So grab your friends, tap your toes, and join the adventure with "Five Green Monkeys" – the ultimate Calypso-style anthem for friendship, fun, and never-ending laughter!

VIDEOS TOO! There are 2 accompanying animated videos which feature these five mischievous green monkeys! These entertaining animations are also great for littlies learning about numbers and counting, because children visually experience what addition and subtraction actually means. See these fun videos in the menu VIDEOS or on the YouTube Channel called Rainbows and Sunshine Kids Music. 🐒🎶

Lyrics

5 green monkeys knocking on a door.
One went inside and then there were 4
1 – 2 – . 1 2 3 4

4 green monkeys knocking on a door.
4 green monkeys playing in a tree
One went inside and then there were 3
1 – 2 – . 1 2 3 –

3 green monkeys playing in a tree.
3 green monkeys went to the zoo
One went inside and then there were 2
1 – 2 – . 1 – 2 –

2 green monkeys went to the zoo.
2 green monkeys playing in the sun
One went inside and then there was 1
1 – – – . 1 – – –

1 green monkey playing in the sun.
1 green monkey went for a run
He went inside and then there were none
None – – – . None – – –

No green monkeys having fun.
One green monkey found a canoe
Invited a friend and then there were 2
1 – 2 – . 1 – 2 –

2 green monkeys in a canoe.
Two green monkeys swam in the sea
They met a friend and then there were 3
1 – 2 – . 1 2 3 –

3 green monkeys swam in the sea.
3 green monkeys looked at the shore
Met another friend and then there were 4
1 – 2 – . 1 2 3 4

4 green monkeys looked at the shore.
4 green monkeys went for a drive
Met another friend and then there were 5
1 – 2 – 3 4 5

5 green monkeys went for a drive.
5 green monkeys who were all friends
Arranged to meet and do it all again
Arranged to meet and do it all again!
