Momus - Monkey lyrics

Monkey, my pretty little monkey
A pity there's no money in the bank
Don't worry
There must be something we can try
Some way we'll get by

But the bills are heaping up
And I don't think we can cope
Now the nights are drawing in
And your face is drawn and thin
And everything is going to the dogs
Monkey, I still love you!

Donkey, I've been working like a donkey
Humping coal from the cellar to the stove
Don't worry
You know the saying "God provides"
Some days that lie is almost true

Wwwwrrr, slinky, I nеver want to be slinky
Underhand, whеre my hand should never be
But, if I'm wonky my pretty little monkey
I'm only doing it for you, see
And doing it for me

But the war is heating up
I don't think we're going to win
Now the curfew's drawing in
And the donkey's getting thin
And everything is going to the dogs
Monkey, I still love you!

Monkey, my pretty little monkey
A pity there's no money in the bank
Don't worry
There must be something we can try
Some way we'll get by
