Great monkey man has gone the distance
The lucky one's going to get it all
Loving life now
Living on top
Lucky ones always get it all
Oh, I'm hungry
Don't wanna die like a little dog
Gonna take what I can get
I'm the monkey man
With the great, great monkey plan
It's crazy, crazy, little man
You've got yourself entangled
Oh, love to lie to myself
To say everything is fine now
We got to keep it up
Or fall behind
I got to keep it up
Or lose the edge we found
Drive faster
Build higher, still higher
I dig deeper down 'till what's down in the ground
Is found, used up and then thrown out
Crazy, crazy little man
What do you think you're doing here?
Big, beautiful world just for us
Good use we must put it to
Any way I can think to use it up
What will I tell my grandson's grandsons?
I could weave a fairy tale
Of great Bible-thumping scale
And when he stands empty hands
On his empty land
Asks "What happened here
Great, great monkey man?"
"Why did you think grey was the color of bliss?"
I think, I don't know quite what to say
But I'm worried for myself in this
I'm hungry
Don't wanna die like a little dog
Well, I eat what I can get
From the monkey man
Great, great monkey plan
Crazy, crazy
Man, you've got yourself into a pickle
Crazy, crazy monkey man
"Who is the one in the middle?"
Yeah...
Take a walk
'Cross the ice
Melts too quickly
For us to reach the other side
It's cold in here
But the sun shines bright, oh
It warms this up well
Oh, the tide is rising higher
Look, it's strange
Floating by
Looks just like arms that
Flow out and rise still higher
Golden age
These golden times
Our golden days seem to have us
Hypnotized or blind, well...
