Monkey Man

Great monkey man is going the distance The lucky one's going to get it all Loving life now Living on top Oh, lucky ones always get it all Oh, I'm hungry Don't wanna die like a little dog Gonna take what I can get I'm the monkey man With the great, great monkey plan This crazy, crazy little man You've got yourself entangled Oh, I'd love to lie to myself To say everything is fine now We got to keep it up or fall behind I got to keep it up or lose the edge we found Drive faster Build higher, still higher Dig deeper down 'til it's down in the ground It's found used up and then thrown out Crazy, crazy little man What do you think you're doing here? Big beautiful world just for us Good use we must put it to Any way I can think to use it up What will I tell my grandson's grandsons? I could weave a fairy tale Of great Bible-thumping scale When he stands empty hands on his empty land That's what happened here, great, great monkey man Where did you think grey was the color of bliss? You think I don't know quite what to say But I'm worried for myself in this I'm hungry Don't wanna die like a little dog Well, I eat what I can get From the monkey man Great, great monkey plan Crazy, crazy man You've got yourself [?] in a pickle Crazy, crazy monkey man Who is the one in the middle? Take a walk Cross the ice Melts too quickly For us to reach the other side It's cold in here But the sun shines bright out It warms this up there Oh, the tide is rising higher Look, it's strange floating by Looks just like arms that Flow out and ride now, I will Golden age These golden times Our golden days seem to have us Hypnotized or blind, well
