Male Oh no! the zoo’s open - here they come Every time these humans come past They think we're dumb   Female  Their little ones are so funny they want to come in to play Male Where did they learn how to wrestle, play ball and swing from tree to tree. Find the stars of "Planet of the Apes?” They are OUR descendants  just trying to take credit that’s all Ooh! I’ll just shake my fist like this (demonstrates) Female Tarsi baby, calm down They study us because they KNOW they can learn a lot from us they just like to tease us Male I just don't like being stared and laughed at  Female pull faces at them or bare your teeth They think that's cute! The human kids love making faces  trying to copy US
