Island Monkey
Washed up on the shore, there's a
New kid in town, we've not
Seen the like before, it's a
Mysterious new species
Brought here by strange currents
Across the endless water
Drifting for days and months
Until the sea disgorged you
Still waters teeming with
Life in the petri dish
It's not my destiny
To be an island monkey
There's a bigger world and I
Need to escape, find a
Way to get away from this
Prison containing me
Building a boat gonna
Float off into the sunset
Sailing for new shores and
Looking for new adventures
Still waters teeming with
Life in the petri dish
It's not my destiny
To be an island monkey
Find a better place, make a
New life with new meaning
Riding on the waves 'til I
Can see the coast again
Journey to new places
Experience a sense of
Wonder at strange vistas
A whole new world before me
Still waters teeming with
Life in the petri dish
It's not my destiny
Not my society
Finding a place where there's
Nobody judging me
It's not my destiny
To be an island monkey
It's not my destiny
To be an island monkey
It's not my destiny
To be an island monkey
It's not my destiny
To be an island monkey
New kid in town, we've not
Seen the like before, it's a
Mysterious new species
Brought here by strange currents
Across the endless water
Drifting for days and months
Until the sea disgorged you
Still waters teeming with
Life in the petri dish
It's not my destiny
To be an island monkey
There's a bigger world and I
Need to escape, find a
Way to get away from this
Prison containing me
Building a boat gonna
Float off into the sunset
Sailing for new shores and
Looking for new adventures
Still waters teeming with
Life in the petri dish
It's not my destiny
To be an island monkey
Find a better place, make a
New life with new meaning
Riding on the waves 'til I
Can see the coast again
Journey to new places
Experience a sense of
Wonder at strange vistas
A whole new world before me
Still waters teeming with
Life in the petri dish
It's not my destiny
Not my society
Finding a place where there's
Nobody judging me
It's not my destiny
To be an island monkey
It's not my destiny
To be an island monkey
It's not my destiny
To be an island monkey
It's not my destiny
To be an island monkey
