Monkey See Monkey Do Songtext
von Mark Radice

When I walked in the door they were on the floor
And everybody had a bit too much
Jack Daniels dropped in and started again
Another night, another wipe out
We′re just humans you know but it sure don't show
At least not after all of the booze is gone
Just keep lighting the smokes and making the jokes
And the band plays on

Monkey see, monkey do (Monkey see, monkey do)
Monkey me, monkey you, yeah (Monkey me, monkey you)
You may say I′m crazy but you know that I'm right
Monkey see, monkey do it again tonight


Hey, someone gave us the beat, boys
We saw the women all going crazy
They sang a beautiful song with their hair so long
So we knew what we had to do
Ooh, and the people would holler
"Look, it's way past its color
I′m telling you this world is through"
But their heads were so small they forgot it all
And now they have long hair, too

Monkey see, monkey do (Monkey see, monkey do)
Monkey me, monkey you, yeah (Monkey me, monkey you)
You may say I′m crazy but you know that I'm right
Monkey see, monkey do it again tonight

Remember the day with your first cigarette
You saw when everybody was smoking
And you had to be cool but you absolute fool
Another drag, another burnout
Guess we can′t comprehend it
'Til we finally end it
And then we′ll think back to the beginning
We can stop if we try but the reason why
Is coming up in this hand over here


Monkey see, monkey do (Monkey see, monkey do)
Monkey me, monkey you, yeah (Monkey me, monkey you)
You may say I'm crazy but you know that I′m right
Monkey see, monkey do it again and again
And again and again tonight
Monkey me, monkey you, yeah
You may say I'm crazy but you know that I'm right
Monkey see, monkey do it again tonight

Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do

Hey, hey, yeah
Remember the day with your first cigarette

Monkey see, monkey do

You saw the women all going crazy
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do, yeah
Monkey see, monkey do, yeah
Monkey see, monkey do, yeah
Monkey see, monkey do, yeah
Monkey see, monkey do, yeah
Monkey see, monkey do
