Rock This Monkey

We live in a jungle, struggle everyday
Run to Doctor Feelgood to take the pain away
Chained to a habit, never see the truth
Go fast, no nowhere
An animal that’s caged in the zoo
It’s not a glamor thing
Everybody knows monkey want everything
Everybody hears, the noise is deafening
But I don’t wanna be slave no more
We’re gonna rock this monkey off our back
Free our souls, back on track
Rock this monkey off our back
Let the lover in, make it better than it’s ever been
Rock
Rock
Rock this monkey
Come on, let’s dance in the fire, it purifies the soul
Go naked to the alter, that’s how we take control
Hey, can you hear me? I’m taking back my life
I paid for my crimes and made it through the terrible night
I say «amen»
Gonna have a drugs, sex, money, power requiem
Shut it down, no more punishment
Cause I don’t wanna be a slave no more
We’re gonna rock this monkey off our back
Free our souls, back on track
Rock this monkey off our back
Let the lover in, make it better than it’s ever been
Rock
Rock
Rock this monkey
Like a priest, like a prisoner, I was nailed to the wall
I gave up on my dream but now you’re the wake-up call
Like a prayer in the darkness, like a wet kiss on your skin
Together we’ve got something to live for again
Rock this monkey off our back
Free our souls, back on track
Rock this monkey off our back
Let the lover in, make it better than it’s ever been
Rock this monkey off our back
Free our souls, back on track
Rock this monkey off our back
Let the lover in, make it better than it’s ever been
Rock this monkey
Rock this monkey
Rock this monkey
Rock this monkey
Rock this monkey
