Lyrics

Monkey Tree

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I live in the jungle,

I sleep in a monkey tree.

I'm looking from an angle,

From the bird of a different breed, yeah.

I never went to your school,

I learned in a monkey tree.

So come into the jungle,

Where the drugs and the drinks are free, yeah.

Tied to the rat race,

A big bird in a small cage.

You're tied with a tightrope,

And you wiggle but it won't let go

You wanna be a free bird,

You wanna be a free lover, see

You gotta run from the shepherd.

Run, run away with me.

I live in the jungle,

I sleep in a monkey tree.

I'm looking from an angle,

From the bird of a different breed, yeah.

I never went to your school,

I learned in a monkey tree.

So come into the jungle,

Where the drugs and the drinks are free, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Everyone, everyone can come.

We got everything, everything you need.

Everything for free. Free, yeah

Yeah, yeah-na-na-na-na.

Yeah, yeah-na-na-na-na.

Yeah, yeah-na-na-na-na.

Run, run away with me.

I live in the jungle,

I sleep in a monkey tree.

I'm looking from an angle,

From the bird of a different breed, yeah.

I never went to your school,

I learned in a monkey tree.

So come into the jungle,

And make love in the sun with me.

(Tied to the rat race)

I live in the jungle, (a big bird in a small cage)

I sleep in a monkey tree. (tied with a tight rope)

So come into the jungle

(And you wiggle but it won't-wiggle but it won't)

Where the drugs and the drinks are free

You wanna be a free bird,

You wanna be a free lover, see

You gotta run from the shepherd.

Run, run away with me.

Run, run away with me.

Run, run away with me.

Run, run away with me.
