Monkey On My Back lyrics
by Inspiral Carpets
[Verse 1]
So very hot up in your room
A man can feel the danger
And you tell me, "it'll be soon"
So I control my anger
Thought you said there's no danger here
That's when I can see your fear
[Chorus]
The monkey (There's a monkey on my back)
On my back (There's a monkey on my back)
Is bleeding (There's a monkey on my back)
The monkey on my back is bleeding
The monkey on my back is bleeding
[Verse 2]
I'll try to tell you how I feel
It's got me counting the hours
It's not so unreal
If you've got the special powers
Won't ever see the morning light
Don't tell me it ain't right
[Chorus]
The monkey (There's a monkey on my back)
On my back (There's a monkey on my back)
Is bleeding (There's a monkey on my back)
The monkey on my back is bleeding
The monkey on my back is bleeding
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
The monkey (There's a monkey on my back)
On my back (There's a monkey on my back)
Is bleeding (There's a monkey on my back)
The monkey on my back is bleeding
The monkey on my back is bleeding
