Steel Monkey |
| As the moon slips up, the sun slips down |
| I’m a highrise jockey, and I’m heaven bound |
| Do the woorkboot shuffle, loose brains from brawn |
| I’m a monkey puzzle and the lid is on |
| Can you guess my name? |
| Can you guess my trade? |
| I’m going to catch you anyway |
| You might be right. |
| I’ll give you guesses three |
| Feel me climbing up your knee |
| Guess what I am. |
| I’m a steel monkey |
| Now some men hustle and some just think |
| And some go running before you blink |
| Some look up and some look down |
| From three hundred feet above the ground |
| Can you guess my name? |
| And can you guess my trade? |
| Well, I won’t rest before the world is made |
| Arm in arm the angels fly |
| Keep me from falling out the sky |
| Steel monkey |
| Steel monkey |
| Steel monkey |
| I work in the thunder and i work in the rain |
| I work at my drinking, and I feel no pain |
| I work on women, if they want me to |
| You can have me a climb all over you |
| Now, have you guessed my name? |
| And have you guessed my trade? |
| I’m cheap at the money I get paid |
| In the sulphur city, where men are men |
| We bolt those beams then climb again |
| Steel monkey |
