Lyrics

I'm a flea-bit peanut monkey
All my friends are junkies
That's not really true
I'm a cold Italian pizza
I could use a lemon squeezer
What you do?
But I've been bit and I've been tossed around
By every she-rat in this town
Have you, babe?
But I am just a monkey man
I'm glad you are a monkey woman, too
I was bitten by a boar
I was gouged and I was gored
But I pulled on through
Yes, I'm a sack of broken eggs
I always have an unmade bed
Don't you?
Well, I hope we're not too messianic
Or a trifle too Satanic
We love to play the blues
Well, I am just a monkey man
I'm glad you are a monkey, monkey woman, too, babe (Monkey)
I'm a monkey
I'm a monkey
I'm a monkey, babe
I'm a monkey man
I'm a monkey
I'm a monkey
I'm a monkey
I'm a monkey
I'm mo-mo-mo-mo-monkey
I'm mo-mo-mo-mo-monkey
I'm a mo-mo-mo-mo-monkey
Mo-mo, mo-mo, mo-mo, mama
Mo-mo, mo-mo, mo, mo-mo, mama
Mo-mo, mo-mo, mo, mo-mo, monkey
Ah! I'm a monkey
