Lyrics

I saw a woman with a monkey on her back now I saw the flunkey's suffering on the road Let's all pray to the virgin of hysteria Let's all pretend to be quite sincere Our lives will never be the same now Too much money says look the other way And if you manage to return somehow I promise I will change Please don't go away, again I jump over my shadow, to reach out to you again I jump over my shadow, will you take me back again I jump over my shadow, I jump over my shadow I jump over my shadow, I jump over my shadow Big eyes on little kids with big ideas yeah They're wanting everything that they can see No need to work and bust your guts now Just take what you want from you and me We want some instant deification Too much faith says look the other way And if we don't get gratification Will we ever change, would we ever say, again I jump over my shadow, to reach out to you again I jump over my shadow, will you take me back again I jump over my shadow, I jump over my shadow I jump over my shadow, I jump over my shadow
