Yeah

[???]

And we rush through the air
In the year I see
In a time machine
Travelling to me
A somewhere
[???]

And [?wall?] and [?fall/fold?] away
In the world I've said again
Coming after me
In my head
[???]

In the [?my love / mother?] I see
Is weeping tears on me
And the tears of poison rinse away
And the tears of poison flow away
But she cries not for her soul [?away?]
She cries not for the planet here
But she cries for the suicide of children
Voice in her [?reason / rest say?]
[???]

[Wailing]
Proudest Monkey
main lyrics
Swing in this tree
oh, I am bounce around so well
branch to branch, limb to limb, you see
all in a day's dream
I am stuck like the other monkeys here
I am a humble monkey
sitting up in here again

But then came the day
I climbed out of these safe limbs
ventured away
walking tall, head high up and singing
I went to the city
car horns, corners, and the gritty
now I am the proudest monkey
you ever seen
monkey see, monkey do, yeah

Then comes the day
staring at myself, I turn to question me
I wonder, do I want the simple, simple life
that I once lived in a way?
oh, things were quiet then
in a way they were the better days
but now I am the proudest monkey
you ever seen
monkey see, monkey do, yeah

Monkey see, monkey do [x22]
