Lyrics

Wise Monkeys and The Devil
La-laa, I am not listening, la-laa, I cannot hear.
La-laa, my mind noise-cancelling, la-laa, made up and clear.
Headspace. Hiding place.
Smart monkey said there are no monsters in the dark,
those brewing storms won't get here till we have an ark.
La-laa, audience listening, la-laa, but cannot hear.
La-laa, myside biasing, la-laa, what is not near.
Headspace. No escape.
No firewall will stop that heat, the feet go on,
years coming but gone, so all those swans are flocking black.
MONKEY SEE!
MONKEY DO!
Or not.
MONKEY SPEAK!
Or not.
MONKEY HEAR!
Ape King is on his way,
and when away he will always stay.
Forever chasing the glory that never was.
Smash the serpents, forbidden fruits.
The fight is on: brawn duck and dodge and dance,
like Doom and Conan, they kick ass.
Hey, stop passing this popcorn trash,
we should watch something else!
Uuumm.. so you mean like The Destroyer or Red Sonja? . or Troll?
What went wrong when wrong feels right?
Will we fight or bless this night?
What if the Only Son does have an older sis,
poor Devil, never hugged or felt a mother's kiss.
Wrongs of our fathers ain't our fault but duty calls.
When wrong is right, jives make us all a monkey wise.
Written by: Jari Kalervo Salo, Paul Malmstrom
