Lyrics

Monkey

My monkey, I want my monkey, oh
My monkey, where is my monkey? Oh
My monkey, I want my monkey, oh
My monkey, where is my monkey? Oh
Today I find myself dripping in gold
My shoes don't want to leave my feet
I'm so happy that I have a mirror like you
One that keeps me right
My clothes are the best at wicking
They keep me dry
I want the Cuban best
Please, rip it off your chest
Give me something to bite onto
Something that'll take my tooth
My monkey, I want my monkey, oh
My monkey, where is my monkеy? Oh
My monkey, I want my monkey, oh
My monkey, whеre is my monkey? Oh
I like all my sides
Words cannot describe the way I feel
My eyes are just there to keep me alive
While I ride the wheel
I want the Cuban best
Please, rip it off your chest
Give me something to bite onto
Something that'll take my tooth
Ah-ah-ah-ah
My monkey, I want my monkey, oh
My monkey, where is my monkey? Oh
My monkey, I want my monkey, oh
My monkey, where is my monkey? Oh
I want my monkey
I want my monkey
I want my monkey
Come here, man
I like that, man
Awe give me that, man
I want my monkey

    Liily - TV or Not TV

    Equal parts chaotic psychedelic post-punk and rock’n’roll.
