Description

In this episode of History Squirt, we remade The Monkey Song - a Victorian music hall anthem about a monkey who steals, fights, and causes social instability. It’s theatrical chaos, 19th century entertainment, and proof that humans have always found animal misbehaviour deeply relatable. Let’s squirt!
