monkey came 'a knocking
at your door
you know you should be careful
what you wish for

now the monkey's back
we all get what we deserve
roll out the plastic cheese
flatten the earth
now the monkey's back
he knows just how to please
that's how i'm living in this
pile of leaves

monkey at the wheel's got
huge control
bonny says it feels so
safe and cold
will she be lying when she says i do

get on the monkey's back
we all get what we deserve
roll out the plastic cheese
flatten the earth
la la the monkey's back
he knows just how to please
that's how i'm living in this
pile of leaves

martyr of the roses
black and blue
you know you should be careful
the things you do

'cause now the monkeys back
we'll all get what we deserve
roll out the plastic cheese
flatten the earth
la la the monkeys back
now forget what you learned
that's how i'm living in this
pile of earth…
