One day we'll be in charge (inspiration challenge)

A chattering filled the glass enclosure. People pressed against the glass, trying to see what they were doing. They being the monkeys, or chimpanzees if you will. One stood on a large rock chattering nonsensically. Well, that’s what it seemed to the humans. The other chimps seemed to hang on his every word.
“All I’m saying is that this isn’t fair!” chattered the chimp. Of course this was in chimp language, I mean how silly would it be for a monkey to speak English!
“What isn’t Charlie?” yelled one in the crowd.
“Why Charlotte, how they keep us locked in this box. They press their ugly little noses against the glass and laugh, while we sit, sit and eat fruit!”
“Well then what do you suggest we do? Tell us Charlie oh mighty patriach!” cried one excited young chimp who was soon shushed by his father.
“We rise up!” Charlie yelled “We show them we’re even more intelligent than they think by breaking out! Then I, I will become president!”

He turned to the glass

“Laugh now! One day, we’ll be in charge!!!”
