| When you look, what do you see?
You only see the monkey not the man in me
But now I'm back, and that's a fact
Gonna show the next generation where I'm at
What I mean is to say
The way that I was is the same as I am today
Now if you're white, or if you're black
Remember you can't get the monkey of your back
And now you're running, and you're running, and you're running away
You're running from the monkey man
And now you're running, and you're running, and you're running away
You're running from the monkey man
I was lost, and now I'm found
Some might even say that I've been around
With the crowd I would move
Mr. sophisticated just can't lose
Now in the style that I would dress
I was the steady reason no-one could test
Yes I was smart, and I was cool
No matter how hard they tried I was no-ones fool
And now you're running, and you're running, and you're running away
You're running from the monkey man
And now you're running, and you're running, and you're running away
You're running from the monkey man
Now did you hear what I say?
Aah aah aah
Now did you hear what I say?
Aah aah aah
When you look, what do you see?
You only see the monkey not the man in me
But now I'm back, and that's a fact
Gonna show the next generation where I'm at
What I mean is to say
The way that I was is the same as I am today
Now if you're white, or if you're black
Remember you can't get this monkey of your back
And now you're running, and you're running, and you're running away
You're running from the monkey man
And now you're running, and you're running, and you're running away
You're running from the monkey man
And now you're running, and you're running, and you're running away
You're running from the monkey man
And now you're running, and you're running, but you can't get away
From the monkey man
From the monkey man |
