Does anyone know what Freddie is saying in the chorus (right before 'I don't have no time for no monkey business')?

It sounds like 'Ee-do-day' 'Ee-do-day'

Or is it just sounds-I notice that half way through the song he begins a session of interesting vocalizations. I love this song, and I've wondered about this.

Could it be similar to his clip in the Tribute Concert where he is on stage alone singing these sounds ('Eh-do,ee-do').

Should you consider reading the lyrics, eh?

And Freddie in his OWN tribute consert?.. most probably dude, definitely :)
God created man from dust, man replied with sin and lust..
Freddie stole the Freddie Mercury Tribute show as well as Live Aid!
Stole the ROTC show as well.
Name one show that Freddie hasn't stolen once he's appeared in it.

Yea thats what i think it is too.

Its a fun song, i love it. Especially the monkey business part, thats something everyone in my house has said as long as i could remember, and its also the only song ive ever heard it in.

:-D

Ookay.
I like Living On My Own, as well.
It just seems like a contradiction that he's enjoying singing about being alone and depressed.
But then again, the video is pretty good.

Actually, it is VERY far from being a fun song. It is about loneliness and depression - which is about as far from fun as one can get!
