austin lounge lizards - monkey on my back lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
no one wants to listen to my tale of woe
my friends are laughin’, point and say, “i told you so”
they say that you’re subhuman, i should let you be
but i can’t ’cause you’ve really got a hold on me
it’s a weighty problem, i can’t seem to solve
how in creation did the situation evolve?
ever since the day you told me we were through
there’s a monkey on my back and it looks like you

[chorus]
i can’t eat, i can’t sleep
i’m a glutton for promises that i don’t keep
can’t control a single thing i say or do
there’s a monkey on my back and it looks like you

[verse 2]
i knew you were a swingеr, but i didn’t think
your wedding ring would turn into a missing link
you call me h+rny and i throw, “that’s not so”
i’m just living in the past and adapting slow

[chorus]
i can’t sleep, i can’t еat
i start singing choruses i don’t complete
they might as well lock me up in the zoo
with the monkey on my back
[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
so you packed it in and sent me on a bad trip
there’s so much heavy baggage, i’m losing my grip
my heart is on a bus right down to timbuktu
where a certain little monkey looks like you know who

[chorus]
i can’t eat, i can’t sleep
i’m meeting chimpanzees instead of sheep
there was an albatross around my neck
then it grew into a monkey on my back and it looks like you
monkey on my back and it looks like you
monkey on my back and it looks like you

[outro]
well, there’s a monkey
on my back and it looks like you
