English[edit]

Some people call me negative
They don't like my frown
They all try to cheer me up
But I'm down with being down!

I know what you're thinking
He's a genius... 'Cause I am!

'Cause I'm Cranky
I got my finger on the beat
Yeah, I'm Cranky
The oldest, wisest ape you'll ever meet!

French[edit]

French lyrics Translation

Y en a qui me trouvent trop mou
Qui croient que je fais la tête
Mais ils ont rien compris du tout
Car j'ai envie de faire la fête

Oui, croyez-moi
C'est un génie et c'est vrai !

Car je suis Cranky
Oui, c'est moi, le roi du rythme
Oui, je suis Cranky
Je suis le plus malin de tous les singes !

Some people think I'm too sluggish
They think I'm sulking
But they don't get it at all
Because I want to party

Yes, believe me
He's a genius and it's true!

Because I'm Cranky
Yes, it's me, the king of rhythm
Yes, I'm Cranky
I'm the cleverest of all apes!

Algunos me llaman negativo
No les gusta ni mirar
Creen que estoy deprimido
Y me tratan de animar

Es un genio y es verdad!

Yo soy Cranky
Ja ja! Y tengo el ritmo en mi interior
Si, soy Cranky
¡El mico más sabio, el mejor!

They don't even like to look at me

And they try to cheer me up

Ha ha! And I've got the rhythm inside me
Yes, I'm Cranky
The wisest monkey, the best!

Algunas personas me llaman negativo
No les gusta mi seño fruncido
Todos intentan animarme
Pero no me importa estar triste

Soy el mejor, nunca has conocido a nadie como yo
Porque soy Cranky
¡El uno va viejo y sabio de este lugar!

I'm the best, you've never met anyone like me
Because I'm Cranky
The one who goes old and wise in this place!
