Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to lifeCover me when I run
Cover me through the fire
Something knocked me out' the trees
Now I'm on my knees
Cover me, darling please
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know when you're going to shock the monkeyFox the fox
Rat the rat
You can ape the ape
I know about that
There is one thing you must be sure of
I can't take any more
Darling, don't you monkey with the monkey
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're going to shock the monkeyWheels keep turning
Something's burning
Don't like it but I guess I'm learningShock! Watch the monkey get hurt, monkeyCover me, when I sleep
Cover me, when I breathe
You throw your pearls before the swine
Make the monkey blind
Cover me, darling please
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're going to shock the monkeyToo much at stake
Ground beneath me shake
And the news is breakingShock! Watch the monkey get hurt, monkeyShock the monkey
Shock the monkey
Shock the monkey to life
