1. Dialogue 5 & Go Ape!

2. Dialogue 5 “The Apes at the Zoo” by William Sorley, age 11 Chimpanzee: Chimps seem lazy, and sometimes crazy. Gorilla: Gorillas are hairy and kind of scary. Orangutan: And those silly orangutans seem to bounce like boomerangs Chimpanzee: I like to watch the apes at the zoo ‘cause they like to play monkey see- monkey do!

3. Go Ape! The ape house has that big band jazz. It makes you want to dance. The primate beat is oh, so sweet. It puts you in a trance. The apes react when silver back begins to thump his chest. ‘Cause he’s the king of ape house swing. They know that he’s the best. And once that beat takes hold of you, you simply can’t escape. There’s only one thing you can do. Go Ape! Go Ape!

4. Chimpanzee picks a pair of sticks and beats them on the ground. Orangutan, that forest man, starts stampin’ all around. The beat starts low, but starts to grow as all the gibbons sing. Gorillas bop, bonobos hop, those apes can really swing! And once that beat takes hold of you, you simply can’t escape. There’s only one thing you can do. Go Ape! Go Ape! Go Ape!
