lyrics

Some monkeys on a tree
Remind me of you and me
Getting lost, making love
It might sound strange,
But there’s a lovely mother
Who said “You were bound for glory”
and after all this time I know
That was wrong indeed
I’m a simple guy who tries to get along with it.

Eating peanuts from a bag
Or anything I could grab
Or making love on a sunny day
It might sound strange
But there’s a lovely mother
Who said “You were bound for glory”
And after all this time I know
That was wrong indeed
I’m a simple guy who tries to get along with it.

I beg you, please listen
To the beating of my broken heart
I ask you to follow me,
Swinging through the trees
It might sound strange,
But there’s a lovely mother
Who said “You were bound for glory”
And after all this time I know
That was wrong indeed
I’m like a monkey climbing up a tree.
