Pernice Brothers - Monkey Suit lyrics

rate me

See myself off in my monkey suit each day

Did I walk a slow fish ladder

May of concrete and the bones of people

Ten more minutes till my monkey train pulls in

Where the bums all shine like poisoned angels

Smell of diesel stronger than mine

Don't want to live inside it

Don't want to waste it dreaming

Don't let me disappear

Inside this monkey suit that I'm wearing

How much longer till my monkey ship pulls in

And I sail off to the silent voice

I sail into the white moon

Someone's rattling on my monkey cage all day

While I peck away the ant hill numbers

Peck away my best years

Don't want to live inside it

Don't want to waste it dreaming

Don't let me disappear

Inside this monkey suit that I'm wearing

It takes so much to bring me round

(Much to bring me round)

Without some little lies

The thing where you could anchor yourself down
