The Hellacopters - Monkeyboy lyrics

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
