Monkeys Uptown |
I knew you well, I know you best |
A baby mouth, denied the breast |
A lazy bone, an eagle eye |
Circling a city that’s higher than the sky |
And it’s looking like you better do what they say |
Those monkeys uptown, they told you not to fuck around |
Heavens the name and river is brown |
With all the mud and the rain, it never settles down |
It never settles down |
Your baby left you unimpressed |
But no one likes a beggar, slightly overdressed |
And trouble comes in funky clothes |
You can always find a razor lying in the road |
And it’s looking like you better do what they say |
Those monkeys uptown, they told you not to fuck around |
Heaven’s the name and river is brown |
With all the mud and the rain, it never settles down |
It never settles down |
I knew you well, I know you best |
Everybody owes something to everybody else |
Gabrielle gave me some news to give to you: |
«Never take him for granted, you’ve nothing better to do» |
And it’s looking like you better do what they say |
Those monkeys uptown, they told you not to fuck around |
Heavens the name and river is brown |
With all the mud and the rain, it never settles down |
It never settles down |
