The Monkey |
| The room was dark and short of breath |
| And smelled like some poor junkie’s death |
| All had been dreamed All had been tried |
| The monkey’s long arms opened wide |
| And now at last we all get to make love to the monkey |
| A glow beneath A bang above |
| A whimper at the end of love |
| No one has slept and sweetly dreamed |
| Not since the monkey bucked and screamed |
| The monkey’s breath is sweet and strong |
| The monkey’s tongue is wet and long |
| He neither speaks nor understands |
| He’s got the whole world in his hands |
