Kill the Monkey |
| I’m breathing Carbon Monoxide |
| Aluminium Chloride |
| Sky’s fallin’down ain’t nowhere, to hide |
| Looks like it’s time for the people to decide |
| They’re tired of taking that political ride |
| 'Cause the air is brown, the ocean’s turning black |
| The whole wide world’s got a monkey on its back |
| Chemicals seeping into the ground |
| They’re barbequing wienies at the local meltdown |
| Politicians spending time trying to make a buck |
| Monkey’s getting stronger 'til we all run out of luck |
| There’s a hole in the sky but you can’t see the moon |
| We gotta kill the monkey and let’s do it real soon |
| We got to kill the monkey |
| We got to kill the monkey |
| We got to kill the monkey |
| We got to kill the monkey |
| 'Cause the air is brown, the ocean’s turning black |
| Everybody everywhere’s got a monkey on it’s back |
| Take a deep breath and you burn your nose |
| Take a walk on the beach, you get oil between your toes |
| Move into a house and you develop a lump |
| You find out they built it on a toxic waste dump |
| Listen to me people while I tell you 'bout the trip |
| We got to get together, just to break the monkey grip |
| You know he’s getting stronger everyday that passes by |
| I’m gettin' mighty worried, here’s the reason why |
| He’s out of control just like a runaway bus |
| We got to kill the monkey before the monkey kills us |
| We got to kill the monkey |
| We got to kill the monkey |
| We got to kill the monkey |
| We got to kill the monkey |
| 'Cause the air is brown, the ocean’s turning black |
| The whole wide world’s got a monkey on it’s back |
| We got to kill it |
| We got to kill it |
| ?before it kills us |
| ?before it kills us |
| We got to kill it |
| We got to kill the Monkey before the monkey kills us |
