[Happy Mondays - Monkey In The Family lyrics]
Go easy on your toes
There's a million and one different dances
Who do you know that knows?
There's a monkey in the family
It was trained by Adam and Eve
It was sold to your great
Great grandad and grandma
And decided it wouldn't leave
I had to make the grass more greener
I had to make the sky more blue
I had to put a stop to the Jungle Jive Team
So they don't do the dance with you
When you grow up you'll moonstomp mi lady
To moonstomp is in the blood
You'll have to make a keen decision
But, you'll know everything about love
There's a monkey in the family
Swings from tape to tree
It never stops to see how your doing
It just has time to feed
I had to make the grass more greener
I had to make the sky more blue
I had to put a stop to the Jungle Jive Team
So they don't do the dance on you
There's a monkey in the family
It was trained by Adam and Eve
It was sold to your great
Great grandad and grandma
And decided it wouldn't leave
I had to make the grass more greener
I had to make the sky more blue
I had to put a stop to the Jungle Jive Team
So they don't do the dance with you
It’s delightful the way your walking
Be steady on those feet
Stay away from the peppermint twist
Where the Humpty Humpers meet
There's a monkey in the family
It was trained by Adam and Eve
It was sold to your great
Great grandad and grandma
And decided it wouldn't leave
I had to make the grass more greener
I had to make the sky more blue
I had to put a stop to the Jungle Jive Team
So they don't do the dance with you
There's a monkey in the family
There's a monkey in the family
(There's a monkey in the family)
(There's a monkey in the family)
