The Monkey’s Back

Lyrics

On the monkey's back You paved the way but I lost track Seize the day I want my way But the monkey's back He grew such fingernails He could scratch, he could impale Never fails to hear why So I fed him poison grapes He spit the seeds into my face And he escapes They germinate Weave and till my skin Sprout the seeds, chrysanthemum Pull the weeds from my chin Weave again On this monkey's back He paved the way but I lost track Seize the day, I want my way But the monkey's back He grew such fingernails He could scratch, he could impale Never fails to hear why So I fed him poison grapes He spit the seeds into my face And he escapes They germinate Weave and till my skin Sprout the seeds, chrysanthemum Pull the weeds from my chin Weave again On the monkey's back Oh, on the monkey's back Oh, on the monkey's back On the monkey's back On the monkey's Oh, on the monkey's back [Hidden Track] This is the place Shells [?] [?] [?] [?] grab a knife Don't hide your fear Take off his head Take off his head Take off [?] [?] Don't look so [?] No (x58)
