Lyrics
Shock the monkey
Cover me, when I run
Cover me, through the fire
Something knocked me out the trees
And now I'm on my knees
Darling
Don't you monkey with the monkey
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're gonna
Shock the monkey
Fox the fox
Rat on 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 gonna
Shock the monkey
(Monkey) too much at stake
(Monkey) ground beneath me shake
(Monkey) and the news is breaking
Shock! Shock! Shock!
Watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
Shock! Shock! Shock!
Watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
Cover me, when I sleep
Cover me, when I breathe
You throw your pearls before the swine
Oh-make the monkey blind
Darling
Don't you monkey with the monkey
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're gonna
Shock the monkey
(Monkey) wheels keep turning
(Monkey) something's burning
(Monkey) don't like it but I guess I'm learning
Shock! Shock! Shock!
Watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
Shock! Shock! Shock!
Watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
Shock the monkey
Shock the monkey
Shock the monkey
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to life (shock the monkey to life)
Shock the monkey to life (shock the monkey to life)
Shock the monkey to life (shock the monkey to life)
Hey-hey-hey
Shock the monkey to life (shock the monkey to life)
Shock the monkey to life (shock the monkey to life)
Shock the monkey (shock the monkey)
Shock the monkey (shock the monkey)
Shock the monkey (shock the monkey)
To life, to life
Shock the monkey to life (shock the monkey to life)
Shock the monkey to life (shock the monkey to life)
Hey-hey-hey
Shock the monkey to life (shock the monkey to life)
A whole 'nother shock the monkey to life (shock the monkey to life)
Hey-hey-hey
Shock the monkey, shock the monkey!
Shock the monkey, shock the monkey!
Shock the monkey
Shock the monkey to life
