Monkey
Then White Snake and lightning bolt
Compel us to move to another juke joint
Can't blame it all on the moon
The mess of words that tumble onto you
Because love breaks
Love breaks
Love breaks your heart
Because love breaks
Love breaks your heart
Lately
I do nothing but listen to my body
And I got no designs to do you harm
Oooh baby it's on
I'll be sweet and simple all night long
Pull my hair
Smack my ass
Make me your monkey
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Some splendid Sunday mornin' I'll forget you
And you will tumble from my brain
Like a drifter from a train
I will feel myself getting better
I will find myself growing bold
Comforted by the drone of my mantra
Though I will confess to a measure of loneliness
That follows me down
To the south side of town
Lately
I do nothing but listen to my body
And I got no designs to do you harm
Oooh baby it's on
In my dream there's a beach and there's lightning
And I fall under your spell like a dog
Oooh in my dream you warn me
And we three make our escape
From some beast with a horrible face
Who gains on us
Until eventually we are overcome
Oooh then baby
I feel nuthin'
Oooh tell me tell me mama
How did it happen?
Oooh baby it's on
I'll be sweet and simple all night long
Pull my hair
Smack my ass
Make me your monkey
Pull my hair
Smack my ass
Make me your monkey
Pull my hair
Smack my ass
Make me your monkey
Oooh
Oooh
Oooh
Compel us to move to another juke joint
Can't blame it all on the moon
The mess of words that tumble onto you
Because love breaks
Love breaks
Love breaks your heart
Because love breaks
Love breaks your heart
Lately
I do nothing but listen to my body
And I got no designs to do you harm
Oooh baby it's on
I'll be sweet and simple all night long
Pull my hair
Smack my ass
Make me your monkey
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Some splendid Sunday mornin' I'll forget you
And you will tumble from my brain
Like a drifter from a train
I will feel myself getting better
I will find myself growing bold
Comforted by the drone of my mantra
Though I will confess to a measure of loneliness
That follows me down
To the south side of town
Lately
I do nothing but listen to my body
And I got no designs to do you harm
Oooh baby it's on
In my dream there's a beach and there's lightning
And I fall under your spell like a dog
Oooh in my dream you warn me
And we three make our escape
From some beast with a horrible face
Who gains on us
Until eventually we are overcome
Oooh then baby
I feel nuthin'
Oooh tell me tell me mama
How did it happen?
Oooh baby it's on
I'll be sweet and simple all night long
Pull my hair
Smack my ass
Make me your monkey
Pull my hair
Smack my ass
Make me your monkey
Pull my hair
Smack my ass
Make me your monkey
Oooh
Oooh
Oooh
