Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?
(Monkey, monkey, monkey, yeah, y-yeah)Oh, I count to ten
But I don't know how, and I don't know when to open my eyesBaby, if you kiss me again
Like you did just now, like you did just then (then, then, then)
Just, just, just (do it again)I've had the rest
Now it's time I had the best
So you tell me that you won't do anymoreWell, I'd write your heart a letter
But I think you know me better
