Ready For the Monkeyhouse Lyrics


Your face is like the moment when the sexist hero traps
The slippy villain with the weasel face, you don't have to speak
Your expression is the truth that your words don't say
And the truth won't go awayIn many dark corners
I have thought myself about this
Did you do it out of malice
Did you fall or were you kissedCould you ask your friend in the cowboy jacket
And those boots up to his knee
Would he shut his mouth for me
I've heard just enoughAll I want to hear about pipes and drums
And how little time it takes the klutz to come
The golden gift of silence is I don't have to hear you speak
So would you take him out yourself before I put you both back in the streetNow the story shifts and we see a young man
Standing in the wings too old before his time
Collecting gray hairs
He's proud and he's scared and he says "I don't care"How can he be so blind so how did you corrupt him
You must have got him where it counts
Now he's so numb he's ready to freeze

And you're ready for the monkey houseReady for the monkey house
The monkey house but you won't take me

The Waterboys are a band formed in 1983 by Mike Scott. The band's membership, past and present, has been composed mainly of musicians from the British Isles. London, Dublin, Spiddal, and Findhorn have all served as a home for the group. The band has played in a number of different styles, but most often their music can be described as a mix of Celtic folk music with rock and roll, or folk rock. After ten years of recording and touring, the band dissolved in 1993 and Scott pursued a solo career. The band reformed in 2000, and continues to release albums and tour worldwide.
