Monkey Magic

I was in the wild Living life from tree to tree So I learned a simple song And sang it in a jamboree And the people came and cheered I thought that I was finally free 'Til they sold me to a man Who had another plan for me He said, "Dance monkey, dance" (Dance monkey) Play that song I know, woah He said, "Dance monkey, dance" (Dance monkey) In this yellow coat, woah Dance, dance, dance monkey Dance, dance, dance monkey Dance, dance, dance monkey Saved up just enough Enough to buy a new guitar And I wrote a simple song An honest message from my heart When I sang it to the crowd It was not the same applause I can hear them screaming out You know what we came here for They said, "Dance monkey, dance" (Dance money) Play that song I know, woah They said, "Dance monkey, dance" (Dance money) In your flower coat, woah Dance, dance, dance monkey Dance, dance, dance monkey Dance, dance, dance monkey Dance, dance, dance monkey Doesn't matter what the people say You can take my house way 'Cause I know that I'll never be, no Dance, dance, dance monkey Doesn't matter what the people say You can take my house way 'Cause I know that I'll never be, no Dance, dance, dance monkey Dance, dance, dance monkey Dance, dance, dance monkey Dance, dance, dance monkey Dance, dance, dance monkey Dance, dance, dance monkey Dance, dance, dance monkey Dance monkey Dance monkey

Yeah, well there is something that I've been chasing with, On every little thing that I got. It is a dream I dream, whenever I sleep, only got my, my one shot. I wanna make music and I want to use it to, Ease my mind. I want to write the songs that talk about The smaller parts of my life. Wantin to pour out my mouth into my microphone, but theres a monkey on my back, he wont leave me alone. Theres a monkey on my back he wont leave me alone, oh! Again he pulls out my wallet and he buys me my drinks, and he laughs whenever I read my lyric sheets, Says I am one in a million, Just some kid with a guitar Playing for eight damn years just to be ignored In the corner of an empty bar. No. No. So I said stop fuck you, you're just a little monkey better pack your things and be gone. I'm gonna tell you one time this ain't no free ride. Get off my back and leave! Leave me alone, yeah. Better leave me alone. So I said stop, fuck you, you're just a little monkey better pack your things and be gone. I'm gonna tell you one time this ain't no free ride. Get off my back and leave!! Leave me alone, yeah. Better leave me alone yeah. And yeah he laughed as he wispered into my ear, You're the only thing that's been keeping me here. I'm in the back of your mind, keeping you up at night. Only you can make the music and let in the light I got a lopsided???????????? And I make love similar to the way I sing and rhyme. And if you dont stop by, baby its all right. You can find another way to get home tonight. So I said stop fuck you, you're just a little monkey better pack your things and be gone. I'm gonna tell you one time this ain't no free ride. Get off my back and leave! Leave me alone, yeah. Better leave me alone. I said stop, fuck you, you're just a little monkey better pack your things and be gone. I'm gonna tell you one time this ain't no free ride. Get off my back and leave!! Leave me alone, yeah. Better leave me alone.
