Proudest Monkey - Live at Mile High Music Festival, Commerce City, CO - July 2008

Always nice to come back to Colorado
'Cause we've had a long time hanging out here
There's Theodore there, and I think y'all remember
When we came down

Thank you for welcoming us back here
Very much, thank you very much

Swing in this tree
Oh I am bouncing around so well
Branch to branch
Limb to limb, you see

All in a day's dream
I'm stuck
Like the other monkeys here
I am a humble monkey
Sitting up here in my tree again

But then came the day
I climbed out of these safe limbs
Ventured away
Walking tall, head high up and singing

I went to the city
Car horns, corners and the gritty
Now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do, yeah

But then came the day
Staring at myself, I turn to question me
I wonder do I want the simple
Simple life that I once lived in well

Oh things they were so quiet then
In a way those were my better days
But now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do, yeah

Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do

Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
