'' `` And then , and then , they gave me nuts and pleasant things to eat , and they -- they carried me in their arms up to the top of the trees and said I was their blood brother except that I had no tail , and should be their leader some day . '' `` They have no leader , '' said Bagheera . `` They lie . They have always lied . '' `` They were very kind and bade me come again . Why have I never been taken among the Monkey People ? They stand on their feet as I do . They do not hit me with their hard paws . They play all day . Let me get up ! Bad Baloo , let me up ! I will play with them again .
