Happy Chinese New Year (year of the monkey)

Oh boy this could be something fun, year of the monkey, such a hunky animal, LOL (to another monkey)

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR…


 


The year of the monkey starts today,


There is only one thing I can say,


That is if I knew a way,


To jump around like a monkey,


wanting to get laid,


I could make a ton of money in Chinatown today.


 


wonder if at the beginning of a new year in china,


do they make resolutions like that of the world,


Do they say they will learn English, have their hair curled,


Or to have the wood grain in their rickshaw burled,


hard to fathom what they might want,


from this side of the big pond called pacific,


But maybe, in someway they can let us know and be specific…


 


So how does one react and celebrate?


On this year of the monkey,


do they jump around making silly noises?


scratch under their arms and pound their chests,


Hey, maybe I can get one of them to scratch my dog’s pits!?


I know, I know this story is not one of my best,


But I am doing it right out of my head,


And we all know how much that is definitely the pits…
