"simian" rock/pop songs?-a survey

ok, and now for something completely different. i'm interested in any/all rock/pop songs about our simian friends. i can think of three at the moment: "monkey man" by the stones, "everybody has something to hide except me and my monkey" by the beatles, and "monkey in your soul" by steely dan. are there more? how bored am i to think this up?

I have an obscure 60's frat-rock 45 entitled "The Orangutan Roll" by the very optimistically named Danny & The Hitmakers that I'm sure wouldn't appear in Ben's search... :-)

Twl, don't forget that Kinks song's primate bookend "King Kong"... :-)

This is a stretch, but in Dire Straits' "Money for Nothing" there's a line "bangin' on the bongos like a chim-pan-zee", that ought to fit in your definition.
