The Monkey

I see the mole on the back of a monkey
Why ya gotta lie to live like a junkie
It’s easier to lie then it is to
Live
It’s easier to die then it is to
Live

Fly away
High away
To another day
Far away

Another lonely life
Another lonely day to dream it right
Another holy place
To find the light and sail away oh yeah

You are alone
You can’t go home
You are alone
You can’t go home

I don’t want my life to pass me by
I don’t want to live that same old lie
I don’t want to live a lie
I don’t want to live a lie
I don’t want to live to die

I lived my life like a high school flunky
Don’t know why I listened to that
Goddamned monkey
It’s easier to give in then it is to
Give
It’s easier to die then it is to
Live

Fly away
High away
To another day
Far away


Another lonely life
Another lonely day to dream it right
Another holy place
To find the light and sail away oh yeah

You are alone
You can’t go home
You are alone
You can’t go home

I don’t want my life to pass me by
I don’t want to live that same old lie/
You are alone
I don’t want to live a lie/
You can’t go home
I don’t want to live to die/
You are alone
I don’t want to say
Good-bye
