DAVE MATTHEWS BAND - Monkey Man lyrics

rate me

Great monkey man has gone the distance

The lucky one's going to get it.

Loving life now

Living on top of.

Lucky ones always get it all.

OhI'm hungry

Don't wanna die like a little dog.

Gonna take what I can get

I'm the monkey man

With the greatgreat monkey plan.

It's crazycrazylittle man

You've got yourself entangled.

Ohlove to lie to myself

To say everything is fine now.

We got to keep it up

Or fall behind.

I got to keep it up

Or lose the edge we found faster.

I'll build higherstill higher

I dig deeper down

Til it's down in the ground.

It's foundused up and then thrown out.

Crazycrazy little man

What do you think you're doing here?

Bigbeautiful 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 fairy tale

On a great bible-thumping scale.

When he stands empy hands

On his empty land

That's what happened here.

Greatgreat monkey man.

Where did you think grey was the color of this?

You think I don't know quite what to say?

But I'm worried for myself in this.

I'm hungry

Don't wanna die like a little dog.

WellI eat what I can get

From the monkey man.

Greatgreat monkey man.

Greatgreat monkey plan.

Crazycrazy man

You get yourself turned in a pickle.

Crazycrazy 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.

Ohit warms this up well

Ohthe tide is rising higher.

Lookit's strange

Floating by.

Looks just like the ones

That flow out and rideohI will.

Golden age

These golden times

Our golden days seem to have us

Hypnotized or blindwell.
