The Monkey And The Onion |
| See the monkey peel the onion |
| See the monkey cry |
| He can feel his tears are flowin' |
| But he don’t know why |
| He continues peeling faster |
| 'Til the onion is no more |
| Now at last his cryin’s over |
| But all he had is gone |
| Whatever for |
| You and I are always chasing |
| Wild ambitions and far off dreams |
| As we run in all directions |
| Nothing’s quite the joy it seems |
| If I tell you that I love you |
| Don’t ask how much |
| And don’t ask why |
| Have no doubt and ask no questions |
| Just believe it’s not a lie |
| Never take my love for granted |
| But never put it to the test |
| Like the monkey and his onion |
| Too much investigation |
| You know the rest |
| You and I are always chasing |
| Wild ambitions and far off dreams |
| As we run in all directions |
| Nothing’s quite the joy it seems |
| On that we could be contented |
| With the good things that we’ve gained |
| But in the end we’re empty handed |
| Just because we need the world explained |
