The Turtle and the Monkey |
| I’m a lamb if you love me, but a lion if you poke |
| And if we’re gonna be laughin' I would like to be in on the joke |
| Sometimes I think you show me scabs just to tempt me to tear 'em away |
| Makin' me draw blood, will never make me want to stay |
| Oh, it’s sad but true, love is never enough |
| And after just a few months we are not immune |
| Oh, we used to stay up late starin' in each other’s eyes |
| Now I’m wakin' early to call you up and apologize |
| I’m a turtle in the woods stickin' to my path |
| You’re like a monkey in the trees jumpin' from branch to branch |
| I love the way you move, I love the way you Rock n' Roll |
| But high jumpin' for a turtle is bound to take it’s toll |
| Oh, it’s sad but true, love is never enough |
| And after just a few months we are not immune |
| Oh, we used to stay up late starin' in each other’s eyes |
| Now I’m wakin' early to call you up and apologize |
| And oh oh, it’s a cold hard fact |
| We’ve served some colorful vocabulary, baby, that we can’t take back |
| And oh oh, we used to hold each other tight under the sparkling trees |
| And oh oh, now you’re beggin' for me back on your scraped up knees |
| And oh, oh, we used to spend all night starin' in each other’s eyes |
| Now I’m wakin' early to call you up and apologize |
