Monkey Man
main lyrics
Great monkey man has gone the distance
the lucky one's gonna get it all
loving life now, living on top
the lucky ones always get it all

Oh, I'm hungry
don't want to die like a little dog
gonna take what I can get
I'm the monkey man with the great, great monkey plan

This crazy, crazy little man
you got yourself entangled

Oh, empty lights on myself
they say everything is fine now
we got to keep it up for fall behind
I got to keep it up or lose the edge we found

Drive faster
build higher, still higher
dig deeper down till what's down in the ground is used up
and then thrown out

Crazy, crazy little man
what do you think you're doing here?

Big, beautiful world just for us
good use we must put it to
any way I can think to use it up
what will I tell my grandson's grandsons?
I could weave a fairytale
a great, bible-thumping scale
when he stands, empty hands on his empty land
ask what happened here great, great monkey man

Well, did you think gray was the color bliss?
you think, I don't know quite what to say
but I'm worried for myself in this
I'm hungry
don't want to die like a little dog
well, I eat what I can get from the monkey man
great, great monkey plan

Crazy, crazy man
you've got yourself to in a pickle

Crazy, crazy monkey man
who is the one in the middle?

Take a walk
cross the ice
melts too quickly
for us to reach the other side

It's cold in here
but the sun shines bright, oh
and warms this up that
oh, the tide is rising higher

Look, it's strange
floating by
looks just like [?] they
flow out and ride, well, I will

Golden age
these golden times
our golden days
seem to have us hypnotized or blind, well
