Lyrics Stone Monkey - Danny Vaughn

Stone Monkey

There was a wakeup call in quarantine
A show of hands in a submarine
And the patron saint of midtown’s
Been playing three card all day long
The sky turned the color of tourmaline
The nurse shark brought me Atropene
Stone monkey crashing heavens' scene
He does not belong
And I can’t wait until the lights go out
I just might find out what the shouting’s all about
Lunch was served on the barricades
There was a civil suit by the chambermaids
As I turned a tired circle
In a rowboat with one oar
The sign is given and the runner steals
Achilles rocked back on his heels
And overhead the thunder peals
Stone monkey goes to war
And I can’t wait until the lights go out
I just might find out what the shouting’s all about
Here it comes
Monkey see
Monkey do
Something else 'cause he sure don’t want
To end up like me and you
Monkey time
Monkey shines
Everything is gonna work out just fine
There’s a hawker passing shirts around
There’s a tourist trap on sacred ground
And the four big heads are laughing down
As the people are detained
Paris burned and the critics wailed
The old gods were taken off to jail
Stone monkey rules in heavens' pale
Everything has changed
And I can’t wait until the lights go out
And I might just find out what the shouting’s all about
Monkey see
Monkey do
Something else 'cause he sure don’t want
To end up like me and you
Monkey time
Monkey shines
Everything is gonna work out just fine
Monkey see
Monkey do
Something else 'cause he sure don’t want
To end up like me and you
Monkey time
Monkey shines
Everything is gonna work out just fine
