I was wondering if there was an idiomatic meaning to the phrase "обезьянка ноль" beyond just "monkey zero" (which, to be fair, carries no meaning at all really). I was trying to look but all I could keep finding was lyrics for the tatu song of the same name, which I felt wouldn't help me understand it any better lol. If it carries no other meaning, just let me know so my curiosity will be satisfied.

Spacibo!

Get used to that many russian songs (especially from such musicians performers as tatu) have no meaning at all :)

Yeah, but we can't prove otherwise, can we?
I actually think it's good we can't, lol

yeah, i'm afraid tatu don't care much about the meaning... and who is, actually)

"monkey zero" is just a meaningless stupidity, nowhere to dig deeper

It has no meaning at all. Don't listen to the so-called Russian "musicians". :)

No idea. I actually doubted I knew Russian. Phew.

I read once that it meant "fool," but don't quote me on the accuracy of that. :blush:
