Monkey Man Lyrics


Back from the war
Covered in red, white and blue
So here I am
But I got nowhere to goHeaven help you now
Heaven help you nowMonkey man
This is not Garden Of Eden
Take a look
Who will eat and who gets eatenSaturday night
I'm gettin' out of my head
Who's laughin' now?
You should be runnin' my friendHeaven help us now
Heaven help us nowMonkey man
D.N.A. and evolution
Slide on down
Say goodbye civilizationA hundred miles an hour in my mind
And there you go
Out of control into the promised land
And down we goMonkey man

Are we just some weird mutation?
Oh, my mind
Lead me not into temptationLike a snake
I will strike without a warnin'
Holy cow
Someone pinch me, am I dreamin'?Monkey man
Let's get back to where we started
Slide on down
Evolution's goin' backwards

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
