Oh, what I wouldn't do to be your favourite
Tell me, what would it take to win your praises?

Look up, I just wanna see you beam
Just once, looking like you're proud of me

Tap dancing in my sequined shoes
You don't even realize I'm putting on a show for you
Dance, monkey, dance, waiting for the woo-ah
Look at me, here I am, ta-da

What if I never live up to your expectations?
What if you set them too high
and I'm too far from greatness?

Look up, even if you're faking it
Just once, tell me that I made it

Tap dancing in my sequinеd shoes
You don't even rеalize I'm putting on a show for you
Dance, monkey, dance, waiting for the woo-ah
Look at me, here I am, ta-da

Tap dancing in my sequined shoes
Dance, monkey, dance, waiting for the woo-ah
Ta-da
