George?
-[honking] -Aah!
[groans]
Uh-oh,
George, you can't just do whatever you want, whenever you want,
[gibbering] Oh, Oh, okay,
[sighs] Now, I have an appointment with my shower, Again,
[water running]
[announcer on TV] ,,,and next time, we'll explore
secrets of the mighty Triceratops,
Hey! Do you want to have fun?
-Huh? -Do whatever you want, whenever you want?
Ah!
Then come on over to Castleland and live like royalty!
-Ooh, -[jester] You can plunge down the Spiral Staircase,,,
-Ah, -,,,spin on the Swinging Chandelier,,,
-Ooh, -,,,or jump on Ye Old Water Wheel,
Aha! [laughs, gibbers]
[jester] You can even ride noble horses,
[gibbers]
[jester] Enjoy making messes? Go ahead,
Partake in a raucous medieval feast,
[laughs]
Listen, George, I'm sorry I got angry,
[gibbers]
It's just,,, I was asked to take over this important meeting,
I'm a little unprepared,
Mmm,
Hey, after the meeting, I think we deserve something fun, What do you say?
[gibbering]
[jester] Everyone has a coronation,
and every guest is treated like royalty,
[excited gibbering]
[Ted] Oh, okay, [chuckles] Really? Oh, wow, Thanks,
All right, I'll see you at the museum,
We're in luck, George, My friend, Sophie, works at Castleland,
and we're going to be her guests,
-Huh? -Yeah,
She's gonna pick us up right after my meeting,
So you're coming with me to the museum,
[gasps, excited gibbering]
But you need to be on your best behavior,
[gibbers]
Oh, Mm-hmm,
[gasps]
[horse whinnies]
Ooh, horses,
[sighs] Your Monkeyness, isn't it wonderful to be out of the castle?
Well, I think it's fun to be out with everybody,
Philippe has a point, Isabel,
Nothing good comes from mixing with the common folk,
Now, Ana, can you please--
Fill you in on our host? Of course, Just,,,
over here, [chuckles] Here he is, Your Majesty,
We'll see the Simiana Exhibit, and then he'll give us a brief tour,
Hmm, Do you really think a man wearing a hat like that
can be trusted to take care of our--
Precious artifacts? [chuckles]
Well, he looks a little bit,,,
unusual, but as you know,
the royal family's popularity among the people
is at an all-time low,
-Hmm, -However,
this exhibit, combined with Princess Isabel's upcoming coronation,
is sure to bring you back on top,
[sighs] I hope so,
For Isabel's sake,
[playing jazz music]
[gasps] Papa! Look,
Hmph,
Isabel, you know music is simply not dignified,
And certainly not appropriate for royalty,
Yes, Papa,
Quick, George, I can't be late,
[gibbering]
Hey, George, Love the crown,
Ah, Ah,
Lots of royalty coming through today,
[gasps] Don't tell me the King of Simiana's already here,
Judge for yourself, Isn't he kingly?
Oh, brother,
[gibbering]
Ooh,
Oh, ah,
[Ted] Come on, This way, George,
George, stay right here and don't move a muscle,
As soon as I'm done, we're off to Castleland, Okay?
[gibbering]
[groans]
[Isabel gasps] Oh,
-[ruffling] -Huh,
Hmm,
Ah,,,
Uh, um,,,
Your Highest Highness,
Wait, no, no, That's wrong,
-Uh,,, Mmm, -Um, Your Majesty's Royal--
No, no, no, no, That's off, that's off,,,
Wow, it's a miniature version of home,
And they have a copy of our Book of Customs,
[clears throat] And our host?
Only three minutes late,
Tardiness is not one of our honored customs,
I'm here! [stutters] I'm here, So sorry I'm late,
Welcome to our Royal Treasures exhibit,
Your privilege, It's a great Majesty--
No, no, no, I mean, I mean, it's a great Highness-- Ah,,, I, ooh,,,
May I introduce his Royal Majesty,
King Gustavo Hernando Fernando Heraldo V,
And the Princess Isabel Hortensia Florencia III, of the kingdom of Simiana,
Uh,,, Ted, I'm Ted,,, the first,
[giggles]
Oh, is that,,,
The most precious artifact in all of Simiana,
which the king has graciously loaned to your museum?
Yes,
A monkey, Incredible,
The monkey is our national symbol,
-It is? -Yes,
Centuries ago, one saved a young king's life,
We treat them like royalty,
Oh, that's amazing,
I happen to be very fond of monkeys too, Well, one in particular,
How fascinating, As you can see, our Philippe--
Ana, where's Philippe?
[grunts]
Yuck,
Argh,
[gibbering]
[gasps]
Huh?
[gibbering]
Oh,
Ah, Oh? Ah,
[gibbering]
[laughs]
[gasps] Oh, Ooh,
[gibbering]
[grunts]
Aw, Hmm,
[gibbering]
Uh-oh!
Whoa,
Hey!
Ooh, ooh,
And don't worry about a thing,
If there's one thing I know how to take care of, it's a--
Monkey?
Oh! Whoa! Uh, oh!
-[all gasp] -[clatters]
What just happened?
Nothing,
I mean, nothing that will ever happen again,
Hmph,
Uh, I can see you're upset,
So,,, let me just, um,,,
show you all the museum's devices
which will keep your precious artifact safe,
But first, I just need one minute,
Ugh, This is a disaster,
I've changed my mind, The exhibition is off,
Oh, I understand, Your Majesty,
but perhaps we could just give them a second chance,
Giving second chances is not an honored custom, We're leaving,
[sighs]
-[Ted] George? -Ooh?
You were supposed to stay in the office,
[gibbers]
-[beeps] -[line ringing]
Hi, Sophie, Ted here, I need a huge favor,
-Doris? -Hmm?
Can you watch George until the car from Castleland gets here?
My friend Sophie is picking him up,
Check, I'm on it,
George, I have to stay here and straighten things out,
So you stay with Doris until Sophie gets here,
I'll come to Castleland as soon as I can, all right?
[gibbering]
I printed out this Castleland brochure,
You can study all the rides on your trip,
Ooh, [gibbers]
Now, be a good little monkey,
Bye,
And I need--
Your car, It's on the way,
-[all gasp] -You're leaving?
Wait, Can we talk about this?
Good day, Mr,,,
Man with the Yellow Hat,
Come, We're going home,
But where's Philippe?
Apparently, he had the good sense to wait outside,
[sighs]
-[beeps] -[line ringing]
Sophie, I'm really sorry,
but George and I are gonna have to reschedule,
-[jazz music playing] -Huh?
Huh,
[gibbering]
[vocalizing]
Hmm,
Hmm?
Hmph!
Ugh, what was I thinking?
This is what happens when you take chances,
There you are, Your Monkeyness,
-Oh, -[clamoring]
[George] Uh-oh,
-Ooh, -[George gibbers]
[King Gustavo] Isabel, let me help you out, Ana, we need to find--
[Ana] Right away, Your Majesty,
[grunts] There you are,
Hi,
I hope you weren't hurt,
Oh, Uh-uh,
Oh, my goodness, where's your vest? Oh,
[gasps] Oh,,,
There, Now you look like yourself,
Uh-huh,
Ready to go back to the Castle, Your Monkeyness?
[gasps]
[gibbering]
[sirens blare]
[Doris grunting] Comin', Hold on,
-[gasps] -[Doris] Hold on,
Doris, what happened? Please tell me it didn't involve George,
What part don't you want to know first?
The part where George climbed on top of the canopy?
Or the part where it fell right on the royal family?
What? Oh,,,
[Philippe grunting]
George,
Are you okay?
Huh?
[sighs] The king and the princess left,
Huh?
Oh, yes, they did,
So the exhibit's off, and you're coming home with me,
Ugh,
We'll have to go to the castle another day,
Hmph,
So you're going to give me the silent treatment?
Well, fine, But you still need to come with me,
[gibbering]
Ah!
Ah, Ooh,
Ah! [hooting]
[laughing]
What's the matter, Your Monkeyness? It's time to go,
[gibbering]
[car horns honking]
You know what the problem is? I've been too nice,
Well, things are going to be different from now on,
Back from the castle already?
Welcome, Your Highness,
[inhales] Okay,
-[bones cracking] -[grunts]
-[elevator bell dings] -[clears throat]
Chop, chop, We've got a lot to work on, buddy,
From now on, you're playing by the rules,
Well--
Okay, then, I'll be out here,
Looking for a new museum exhibit,
Ah,,,
Does Your Monkeyness require anything else?
Ah,,, [giggles] Nah,,,
Very well,
Ooh,
Uh-huh!
[gibbering]
Ah!
Mmm, mmm!
Ooh! Aha,
Oh, Ah,
Hmph,
I'll take care of this, Your Majesty,
[George giggling]
-[gibbering] -Your Monkeyness, I'll take you to your room,
[gibbering]
Ooh,
[gibbering]
I encourage you to rest, Your Monkeyness, It's been a long trip,
[gasps, giggles]
Oh,
[excited gibbering]
[gasps] Ah!

Ah,,, Your Monkeyness, shall we proceed to the banquet hall?
Lunch is about to be served,
Ah! Aha!
[bleats]
[car horns honking]
This, my friend, is a copy of the Simianan Book of Customs,
Yep, today, you're going to learn proper eating etiquette,
It says here, "When sitting down,
take your napkin and place it on your,,,"
Yeah, Okay, That,,, that was good,
"Don't scoop your food,
The knife can be used
to help guide food onto your fork,
And avoid placing your elbows on the table at all times,"
[clears throat]
[chuckles] Huh,
This is harder than I thought,
"And finally, when you're done,
don't forget to use your napkin,"
Wow, Look who joined the Clean Plate Club,
And the Clean Table Club,
We should have done this a long time ago,
[door slams]
[George gibbering]
Ah! Ah,
[gasps]
Ah,
Lunch is served,
Wow,
Ooh,
[gibbering]
Aw, [gibbers]
Well,,,
[sighs] You wouldn't understand,
Huh? Ah,
Ah,
[King Gustavo] So, Mr, Mayor, how are the preparations going?
Everything is in order for tomorrow,
when we celebrate Princess Isabel's junior coronation,
The coronation of the heir apparent, [chuckles]
Ooh! [gibbering]
[laughs]
Your Monkeyness, you seem surprised,
But you know that tomorrow is the day
Princess Isabel becomes an official member of the Royal Court
and begins her many royal duties,
Oh, please don't remind me,
I want to enjoy my last day of freedom,
[chuckles] Now, Isabel,,,
[clears throat] There's just one last piece of business,
I'm afraid the people still insist on having their
horse race as part of the big day,
[gibbers]
But I've seen to it that the people's derby
will be over well before the coronation,
Did you say there's a horse derby tomorrow?
Why didn't I know about this? Can we go?
[gibbers]
Oh, well, that's not on our itinerary,
Isabel, these events are unseemly,
and we will certainly not attend,
-[sighs] -Aw,
[chuckles] The mayor's point
is that it won't interfere with your coronation,
That's good news, my dear,
Thank you, Mr, Mayor,
[chomping loudly]
-[gasps] -[George gulps, giggles]
What are you doing?
[gibbers]
[gasps]
[all gasp]
[laughs]
The Royal Monkey is clearly not himself today,
Allow me, Your Majesty,
Your Monkeyness, I can see you might enjoy a rest after your long journey,
[gibbers]
I trust Your Monkeyness will feel more like himself after a bath,
Yeah,
Yah!
[clears throat] I see, Well, I'll leave you to it,
Bye-bye,
[gibbering]
[panting]
-How's Philippe? -[gasps]
He's, uh, bathing, [chuckles] So I think it's best if we just--
Ana, Philippe never behaved like this before that trip,
I blame that,,, that yellow hatted man,
Well, yes, the Royal Monkey will be back to his well-behaved self
in no time, Your Majesty,
He has such a critical role in Isabel's coronation,
He's crowning her, for goodness sake, Nothing can go wrong,
Oh,,,
Absolutely,
To make sure of it, I scheduled an extra rehearsal today,
But we've rehearsed a hundred times,
I know, my dear, but this is quite important,
[gasps] Perhaps we should leave Philippe
so that the bath can have the full soothing effect,
I'm sure he'll join us as soon as he's done,
Hmm, No doubt you're right,
-[sighs] -[George gibbering]
Huh?
Your next lesson today:
taking a bath without making your usual mess,
Now, I know that's a big step, but--
What? What's the matter?
Oh, [chuckles] Look at that,
Okay, well, uh, we've got lots of towels to choose from,,,
Hmm, Huh? Yeesh,
-Hmm, -Huh?
[gibbers]
Uh,,, yes, sir,
What just happened?
Okay, young monkey, that bathroom had better be,,,
Spotless?
Wow,
Ahem,
Oh, Sorry, [chuckles]
Wow, Perhaps I pushed George too hard,
[George giggles]
[butler] Is Your Monkeyness ready for the coronation rehearsal?
Uh-huh,
Okay, we're picking this up from the princess already seated,
Excellent, Now, cue the drummers,
-[drums playing] -And now, the royal trumpeters,
[coronation anthem playing]
And now, the Royal Monkey, bearing his royal scepter,
[clears throat] The Royal Monkey enters!
Oh, come on, where's the Royal Monkey?
[George gibbering]
Aha!
[lively music playing]
[jazzy music]
Ooh!
-Huh? -[music stops]
Did everyone suddenly forget
the king's no-music policy?
Huh? [gibbers]
Your Monkeyness, Please, We need to continue,
[gibbers]
[sighs]
Places, please, places,
And here we go, Drummers,,,
-[drums playing] -Now, carrying the crown,
the Royal Monkey performs the traditional royal march,
[gibbering]
Okay,,, The Royal Monkey proceeds,,,
-[clears throat] ,,,with great formality,,, -[continues gibbering]
and presents the crown to the princess,
[crown clattering]
[all gasp]
[George gasps, gibbers]
[crowd exclaims]
-Ooh, -[crowd clamors]
Okay,
I think you have rehearsed quite enough for one day,
What has gotten into you two?
Ooh,
Don't worry, Ana,
We're just tired of rehearsing,
We've done it perfectly before,
and we'll get it right tomorrow too,
Well,,, see that you do,
[Isabel] Oh,,,
What am I going to do, Philippe?
Huh? [gibbers]
[crying] Oh, this is too awful,
[continues sobbing]
Hmm,
Mm-hmm, Mm-mm-hmm,
Mm-hmm,
This barge should be first and this one last,
Uh, no, wait,,, Uh, this should be first and,,,
Ugh, this is complicated,
[knocking at door]
Uh, yes, enter, enter away,
Ah, good, You've brought--
The Royal Monkey, as you requested,
Thank you, Ana, That will be all,
Your Monkeyness, I wanted to speak with you myself,
[gibbers]
Ooh, [gibbers]
Oh, You like the boats?
[gibbers]
Ah, I made them myself, See, I added the flags,
And here, the itty-bitty bunting,
[George] Ooh,
Aah,
[imitating a motorboat]
Uh-uh, not so fast, The Royal Barge is on your tail,
And it's a tie!
-[laughing] -[gibbering]
Ooh,
[clears throat] Yes, uh, well,
I was just finalizing the plans for Isabel's coronation tomorrow,
Ha-ha,
Uh, which is why I sent for you,
You see, you were just not acting like our Royal Monkey,
Oh, [gibbers]
No, You must straighten up,
I'm counting on you to make sure
absolutely nothing goes wrong tomorrow that would embarrass Isabel,
Her future, in fact, the future of the whole kingdom,,,
depends on it,
Oh, [gibbers]
Hmm,
Hmph,
Hmm? [gibbers]
[gibbering]
Hmm,
[gibbering]
Hmm,
Huh?
[horse whinnies]
[horse snorting]
[gibbering]
Oh, wow,
Your Monkeyness? I've never seen you at the stables before,
[gibbering]
-[laughing] -[whinnies]
[bleating]
Huh? Hey!
[Isabel sighs]
I'm glad we're done with those boring rehearsals,
I know my coronation's important, but after tomorrow,
I'll never be allowed to have any fun,
[gibbers]
Well, you know, it's not like it is in fairy tales,
Just boring meetings all the time once I'm a real princess,
[gibbers]
Papa says there will be no time to ride El Fuego,
-[grunts] -[gibbers]
Your Monkeyness, you're acting so strange,
Why did you come to see me?
Huh?
[bleats]
[gibbering]
-[bleating] -[gibbering]
I didn't know you and Fernando were friends,
You seem so different since our trip,
I like the new Philippe,
Whoa, [giggles]
[car honking]
[Fernando bleats]
-Huh? [gibbering] -[bleating continues]
Oh, dear, Hyah,
Where are you going?
-[George whooping] -[bleating]
Philippe, we shouldn't be here,
Ah,
[Isabel] Hmm,
You know, I've never ridden El Fuego outside the castle gate,
[gibbers]
-[whinnies] -Hyah!
¶ Funny how in just a moment ¶

[gibbering]
Oh, thank you,
[whinnies]
Did you know El Fuego is a champion racehorse?
Ooh,
[bugle blows]
[mayor] This is the last announcement that the people's derby
will start tomorrow at 11:00 a,m, sharp,
Everyone, young and old, is welcome to enter,
Just gather your noble steeds at the starting line after the bugle call,
It's going to be a grand event,
The derby, I'd give anything to ride in it just once,
And I bet El Fuego would too,
[gibbering]
You think we should?
[whinnies]
[gibbers]
I,,, but I,,,
Huh?
You're right, This is my last chance,
El Fuego and I are running in the derby,
[cheers]
[chuckles] But we'd better get back to the castle,
Papa will be wondering where we are, Hyah!
Ride like the wind, Your Monkeyness!
¶ Now you know ¶

After all that hard work, you deserve a little fun,
So, go ahead, have fun!

[gasps]
Hey, how about climbing? Oh, you love climbing trees,
[grunting]
Oh, here I go, Look at me, I am climbing,
[laughs]
[grunting]
Oh, my goodness, this is so much fun! Hey, come on up!
[gasps, shudders] Hey, so, uh,,,
how do you get down from one of these things?
This really isn't necessary,
-Yes, sir, -You see, it's George,
he's like a different monkey, and it's all my fault,
Yeah, Whatever you say, sir,
I just want my old monkey back,
Argh,
[sighs]
I hope that means you forgive me,
Mmm?
Hmm, I could use a snack, How about you?
Hmm,
Mm-hmm,
Mmm, [giggles]
Is this really necessary?
But, Your Majesty, studies show
that the more people watch the coronation,
the better for the national image,
No, no, I mean makeup,
Oh, it,,, brings out your eyes, Your Majesty,
[sighs] Very well,
In three, two,,,
Uh, my fellow citizens of Simiana,
It is my pleasure to invite you
to my daughter's coronation tomorrow,
-Race you, -[gibbers]
Isabel will assume her official,,,
-Papa? -[gibbers]
-[gasps] -[King Gustavo] ,,,with dedication and,,,
Argh,
[gasps]
Uh-oh,
[gibbering]
,,,to witness our country's most solemn ceremony,
Ooh-oh!
-[groans] -[gibbering]
Aaah!
Well, I think that about wraps up the interview,
Isabel, what happened?
I'm sorry, Papa,
And, Philippe, you were supposed to look after her,
[gibbers]
Papa, I know I probably broke every rule,,,
Riding outside the castle? And riding a goat?
What if someone had seen you?
We were just out trying to have some fun,
Hmm,
Isabel, you don't know how quickly the people can turn on you
if you go against custom and look silly,
What do you mean?
Uh, let's not talk about this anymore,
Ana, see to it that the princess and Royal Monkey
get to the coronation on time tomorrow,
[sighs]
-Aah, -I should have never gone riding with you!
Huh?
Your Monkeyness, I'll see you at the coronation tomorrow,
[sighs]
[gasps] Huh?
[gibbering]
¶ Can't find the sun Fun isn't fun like before ¶
¶ Everything's wrong Nothing seems right anymore ¶
¶ Try to be good But somehow it all goes bad ¶
¶ Can't see the light Try as you might ¶
-[sighs] -¶ Nothing seems right anymore
¶ No help in sight Nothing seems right ¶
¶ Anymore ¶
Okay, we're in for a treat, I made pancakes,
Hey, you wanna play hide-n-seek?
Mmm,
How about checkers?
Uh-uh,
[sighs] Okay,,,
How about a movie?
And now for light news from around the world,
There was a minor mishap in a little known country, Simiana,
Simiana?
With the upcoming coronation of their new princess,
they held a press conference and things did not go quite as planned,
I hope you will join us tomorrow
to witness our country's most solemn ceremony,
-[crashing] -[gibbering]
Oh,
[news reader] It looks like that little monkey
caused quite a mess, In other news,,,
Hey, That monkey looks just like you, George,
And he kind of acts like you used to,
Wait a minute,
Okay, this may sound crazy, but are you, by any chance,
the Royal Monkey of Simiana?
Uh-huh,
Uh,,, Wait,
Did you come to the museum with the king and the princess?
-Uh-huh, -Oh, boy,
Uh, you-- Uh,,,
So, George is in Simiana and I didn't break my monkey!
I mean, uh, no offense, Your Magician-- Majestration--
Uh, Mr, Monkey, sir,
We need to get you back home,
And I've got to get George,

-Uh-huh, -George, I am sorry it took me so long to get here,
I thought you were him and he was you,
but I'm so glad that you're not,
[clears throat]
Er, no offense, Philippe,
Oh, George, I missed you so much,
Don't ever stop being my fun little monkey,
Aw,
[gibbers]
-Philippe? -Uh-huh,
Yeah, back at the museum, you left Philippe with me,
and you took George home by mistake,
George, you really spiced things up around here,
-Ah, -He has a way of doing that,
And I loved it,
Aw,
Philippe, I'm glad you're home safe and sound,
Mmm,
Ah,
Mmm,

[guard 1] Clear down this hall!
[panting] Check around that corner!
-What now? -Shh, Let's just hope they won't come in,
Uh, George, best not to touch anything,
Uh-huh,
Ooh,
A secret passage?
[George, Philippe gibber]
[guard 2] Over here! Check the king's quarters!
[George gibbers]
I got nothing,
Copy that,
I think they're gone,
[straining]
Oh!
[gibbering]
Uh-huh! Uh-huh! [hooting]
-What's going on? -Intruder in the castle, ma'am,
If you see a man wearing a yellow hat, let us know,
Argh,
What is this place? Papa has a secret room?
Did you know about this?
-Uh-uh, -[George gibbering]
[Isabel] All these old pictures of Papa,
I never saw any of them, He was so happy,
I don't think I've ever seen him smile,
Uh-uh,
Look, Papa played the horn,
Not for a long time from the looks of it,
[gasps]
I wonder why,
Ooh,
[gibbers]
-[coronation anthem playing] -Hey, look,
[Isabel] Papa's coronation,
[gasps] Look, Philippe, it's your father,
Aw,
[announcer] And now, Prince Gustavo
will perform his original composition
for the people of Simiana,
[jazz music playing on horn]
He's good,
Uh-huh,
Huh? Uh, Argh!
[crowd laughing]
[announcer] Oh, my goodness,
What a shocking development,
The prince has taken a tumble,
Such an embarrassment,
[Isabel] Poor Papa,
[gibbers]
Oh,
That's why he's so scared of anything ever going wrong,
He's afraid people will laugh at us,
[royal horn blowing]
[gasps] My coronation,
I can't be late, I don't want Papa to be embarrassed again,
How are we going to get out of here?
[gibbers]
What are you thinking?
Oh, boy,
Huh?
[gasps] Is that,,,
Oh, no, no, no, no, no,,, Princess!
Here we go,
-Aaah! -Whoo!
[both shout]
-Look out! -Whoo-hoo!
-[sighs] -[gasps]
Oh, oh, my goodness! Princess, are you okay?
Never better,
[George giggles]
[Ana] Philippe? Philippe?
Hmm,
[grunting]
Uh, hi, I'm Ted, From the museum,
[chuckles] You're hard to forget,
-[bell tolling] -Ana, I'll explain everything later,
Right now, we have to get to the barge, Come on!
We're too late!
Ted, grab that rowboat,
[gasps] Yes! Philippe, other monkey, man the oars!
Better yet, monkey them!
[gibbering]
[horn blows]
Uh, anyone have some horn-removal oil?
[crowd chattering]
[excited chatter]
Greetings, citizens of Simiana,
Let the Royal Coronation begin,
[crowd applauding]
[coronation anthem playing]
Huh?
[chattering]
Where's Isabel?
A little closer, a little closer,
[grunts]
Oh, boy,
Isabel?
Philippe?
This is a disaster, [gasps]
[all grunting]
[crowd gasping]
-[inhales sharply] -[crowd laughing]
This can't be happening, Not on Isabel's big day!
Papa?
Isabel,
I'm sorry, Papa,
-[woman] Oh, there she is! -[crowd exclaims]
-[crowd cheering, applauding] -[woman] Congratulations!
I don't understand,
[mayor] Princess!
You ran off without this, Princess,
Whoa, whoa, Aah! [sighs]
Congratulations!
The derby? You raced,
And won!
-[horn blows] -[gasps]
[George gibbering]
[crowd cheering, applauding]
Two Philippes?
And you?
Hi, Yes, it's me, Your Majesty,
And this is Philippe, But this is George,
[giggles]
Uncanny,
Is that my horn?
Papa, I know about your coronation,
You saw?
You played music so well, And you loved it,
-Yeah, -Uh-huh,
People laughed at me, I didn't want that for you,
You should give the people another chance,
Let them get to know you, Papa,
And you shouldn't let fear stop you from doing what you love,
George taught me that,
[laughs]
[sighs]
Then you are a very special monkey,
[gibbers]
And you are a very wise princess,
[crowd cheering, applauding]
-Aw, -Mmm,
[crowd continues cheering, applauding]
[coronation anthem playing]
[gibbering]
[crowd cheering, applauding]
[gibbering]
[horn playing jazz]
[crowd continues cheering, applauding]
Uh-huh!
