Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm a flea-bit peanut monkey All my friends are junkies That's not really true I'm a cold Italian pizza I could use a lemon squeezer Would you do? But I've been bit, and I've been tossed around By every she-rat in this town Have you, babe? [Refrain] Well, I am just a monkey man I'm glad you are a monkey woman too [Verse 2] I was bitten by a boar I was gouged, and I was gored But I pulled on through Yes, I'm a sack of broken eggs I always have an unmade bed Don't you? Well, I hope we're not too messianic Or a trifle too satanic We love to play the blues [Refrain] Well, I am just a monkey man I'm glad you are a monkey, monkey woman too, babe [Instrumental break] [Outro] I'm a monkey! I'm a monkey! I'm a monkey, babe! I'm a monkey, babe! I'm a monkey! I'm a monkey! I'm a monkey! I'm a monkey! M-m-m-monkey! M-m-m-m-monkey! I'm a m-m-m-monkey! M-m-m-ma ma ma ma! Ma ma ma ma ma Ma ma ma ma ma monkey! Ah! I'm a monkey! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! .... [Ad-libs continue into the fade]
