Monkey by Counting Crows Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All dressed up, no place to go
Hey monkey, when you gonna
Show your face around me?
I know all the wrongs and rights
And I just want a little light to fall on me

[Chorus]
Hey monkey, where you been?
This lonely spiral I've been in
Hey monkey, when can we begin?
Hey monkey, where you been?

[Verse 2]
Well, I'm all messed up, that's nothing new
Hey monkey, when you open up your blue eyes
I don't know if I'm wide awake or dreaming
But all I ever need is everything

[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Just get the world off your shoulders
And close your pretty blue eyes
Hey monkey, what's life without
An occasional surprise?

[Verse 4]
I got nowhere but home to go
Got Ben Folds on my radio right now
And I'm in trouble for the things I need
Hey monkey, don't you want to be needed too?

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Hey monkey, where you been?
Hey monkey, where you been?
