Monkeyboy

Monkeyboy

I got an ape performing in my head

If he don't stop then I will soon be dead

This monkey's no friend of mine

I try to act straight but he's on cloud number nine

He's got a cup made of tin

And it's 'cause of him you won't let me in

He bangs a drum so I can't get no sleep

Well he's a monkey but he can't be beat

Head over heels on banana peel

I'm getting confused as to what I feel

And every time I try to speak

He always puts his monkeytongue in my cheek

Oh, my, my - I'd do anything to make him die

And oh then I'd see there's nothing I can do

The monkey's just a part of me

I got a monkey singing in my brain

I should have known already we're the same

Oh, my, my - I'd do anything to make him die

And oh then I'd see there's nothing I can do

The monkey's just a part of me

I got some monkey business to attend

I think I'll ask him if he'd hold my hand

And ask him to be a friend of mine

Together we'll fly up to cloud number nine

And share his cup made of tin

Maybe then you'd like to let us in

Oh, my, my - I did everything to make him die

But oh now I see there's nothing I can do

The monkey's just a part of me

I got some monkey business to attend
