Lyrics:

So very hot up in your room
A man can feel the danger
And you tell me, 'it'll be soon'
So I control my anger
Thought you said there's no danger here
That's when I can see your fear

The monkey (There's a monkey on my back)
On my back (There's a monkey on my back)
Is bleeding (There's a monkey on my back)
The monkey on my back is bleeding
The monkey on my back is bleeding

I'll try to tell you how I feel
It's got me counting the hours
It's not so unreal
If you've got the special powers
Won't ever see the morning light
Don't tell me it ain't right

The monkey (There's a monkey on my back)
On my back (There's a monkey on my back)
Is bleeding (There's a monkey on my back)
The monkey on my back is bleeding
The monkey on my back is bleeding


The monkey (There's a monkey on my back)
On my back (There's a monkey on my back)
Is bleeding (There's a monkey on my back)
The monkey on my back is bleeding
The monkey on my back is bleeding
