Dance Monkey

I was in the wild

Living life from tree to tree

So I learned a simple song

And sang in a jamboree

And the people came and cheered

I thought that I was finally free

'Till they sold me to a man

Who had another plan for me

He said: Dance monkey, dance (dance monkey)

Play that song I know

He said: Dance monkey, dance (dance monkey)

In this yellow coat

Dance, dance, dance monkey

Dance, dance, dance monkey

Dance, dance, dance monkey

Saved up just enough

Enough to buy a new guitar

And I wrote a simple song

An honest message from my heart

When I sang it to the crowd

It was not the same applause

I can hear them screaming out

You know what we came here for

He said: Dance monkey, dance (dance monkey)

Play that song I know

He said: Dance monkey, dance (dance monkey)

In your flower coat

Dance, dance, dance monkey

Dance, dance, dance monkey

Dance, dance, dance monkey

Dance, dance, dance monkey

It doesn't matter what the people say

You can take my house away

'Cause I know that I'll never be, no

Dance, dance, dance monkey

It doesn't matter what the people say

You can take my house away

'Cause I know that I'll never be, no

Dance, dance, dance monkey

Dance, dance, dance monkey

Dance, dance, dance monkey
