Lyrics
Monkey murders
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.
At the center, no one warns you
when that moment might turn the corner
stand the test of your position
remember monkey murders
always love ambition
collect black marks when you try too hard
not to treat her like another toy
it makes you mad, you sleep so badly
cos you're out every saturday night
for what you can't get, boy
is it a problem boy?
let's be kind to one another
share your sister,
you could eat your brother
who cares when it's only fashion
remember monkey murders
always come with passion
remember that night when you tried too hard
not to treat her like another toy
it made you mad, you slept so badly
now you're out every saturday night
for what you can't get,
boy, is it a problem boy?
so obsessive, drinking in the spotlight
he's standing still but of course
he's taking all night
says "there is no love and there is no trust"
said "bite your lip or keep your mouth shut
keep your mouth shut keep your mouth shut
keep your mouth shut"
boy?
is it a problem boy?
is it a problem boy?
yes, is it a problem.
