[Intro]
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to life

Cover me when I run
Cover me through the fire
Something knocked me out the trees, now I'm on my knees
Cover me, darling please
[Chorus 1]
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're going to shock the monkey?
Hey, hey

Fox the fox, rat on the rat
You can ape the ape, I know about that
There is onе thing you must be sure of
I can't take anymorе
Darling, don't you monkey with the monkey
Hey, hey

Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're going to shock the monkey?
Hey, hey

[Post-Chorus 1]
Monkey
Wheels keep turning
A monkey
Something's burning
Monkey
Don't like it, but I guess I'm learning
Shock, shock, shock
Watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
Shock, shock, shock
Watch the monkey get hurt, monkey

Cover me when I sleep
Cover me when I breathe
You throw your pearls before the swine, make the monkey blind
Cover me, darling please

Shock, shock, shock
Watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
Shock, shock, shock
Watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
