I'm a flea-bit peanut monkey, all my friends are junkies
(that's not really true)
I'm a cold Italian pizza, I could use a lemon squeezer
(like you do)
I've been bit and I've been tossed around
by every she-cat in this town
(have you babe?)
I am just a monkey man I'm glad you are a monkey woman too
I was bitten by a boar, I was gouged and I was gored
(I went along too)
I'm a sack of broken eggs, I always have an unmade bed
(don't you?)
Well I hope we're not too Messianic or a trifle too satanic
(love to play the blues)
I am just a monkey man, glad you are a monkey woman too babe
