Testo Bad Monkey - Richard Thompson
Testo della canzone Bad Monkey (Richard Thompson), tratta dall'album Sweet Warrior
Oh, one thing always leads to another
In life and love, they say
You got too close to now that boy
He's gonna make you rue the day
You grip his ankles when he flies
You catch him when he falls
Here's the thing to say to him
Before you climb the walls
I said shame, shame on you, you bad monkey
One day you're up, next day you're down
Why do you monkey my heart around?
I said shame, shame on you, you bad monkey
I'm not coming on the roller coaster with you
Well, I see your nerves a-jangle
Honey, you're a walking emotional wreck
He's dealing you some jokers
Off the bottom of the deck
He goes from joy to suicide
About fifteen times a day
Here's the thing to scream out loud
From a hundred miles away
I said shame, shame on you, you bad monkey
One day you're up, next day you're down
Why do you monkey my heart around?
I said shame, shame on you, you bad monkey
I'm not coming on the roller coaster with you
Well, where's the joy in a boy
Who dribbles when he drinks his tea?
I've seen better manners
From a baby chimpanzee
At fairground rides you grip the sides
You scream until you're blue
You'll be screaming the rest of your life
If he gets hold of you
I said shame, shame on you, you bad monkey
One day you're up, next day you're down
Why do you monkey my heart around?
I said shame, shame on you, you bad monkey
I'm not coming on the roller coaster with you
Shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame on you, you bad monkey
One day you're up, next day you're down
Why do you monkey my heart around?
I said shame, shame on you, you bad monkey
I'm not coming on the roller coaster with you
I said I'm not coming on the roller coaster with you
No, no, no, no
I'm not coming on the roller coaster with you
