You claim the monkey is obscene
You claim the monkey is unclean
I dig the monkey and his scene
I met that mother in a dream
You paint it white, I'll paint it black
I'll be the monkey on your back
On your back [x2]
On your, monkey on your back
You claim the monkey made you fall, yeah
You claim the monkey shaved your balls, yeah
I've seen the monkey and his deeds, yeah
I tell you brother, set him free
You paint it white, I'll paint it black
I'll be the monkey on your back
On your back [x2]
On your, monkey on your back
You paint it white, I'll paint it black
I'll be the monkey on your back
[x2]
On your back [x2]
On your, monkey on your back
