Peter Gabriel
Shock the Monkey (Live 1982)
Shock the Monkey
Cover me when I run, cover me through the fire
Something knocked me out the trees
Now I'm on my knees
Darling, don't you monkey with the monkey
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're going to shock the monkey?
Fox the fox, rat on the rat
You can ape the ape, I know about that
There is one thing you must be sure of
I can't take anymore
Darling, don't you monkey with the monkey
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're going to shock the monkеy?
(Monkey) Too much at stake
(A monkey) Ground bеneath me shake
(Monkey) And the news is breaking
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
Darling, don't you monkey with the monkey
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're going to shock the monkey?
(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
Shock the monkey
Shock the monkey
Shock the monkey
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to life
Shocking monkey to life
Shocking monkey to life, hey, hey
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey (Shock the monkey)
Shock the monkey (Shock the monkey)
Shock the monkey (Shock the monkey)
To life
To life
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to life, hey, hey
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to life, a hope gonna
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to life hey, hey
Shock the monkey (Shock the monkey)
Shock the monkey (Shock the monkey)
Shock the monkey
Shock the monkey to life
