Shock The Monkey (Peter Gabriel Cover) lyrics

Cover me when I run
Cover me through the fire
Something knocked me out the tree
Now I'm on my knees
Cover me, darling please
Hay-a-ay

Monkey... Monkey... Monkey
Don't you know you got to shock the monkey?
Hay-a-ay

Fox the fox
Rat the rat
You can ape the ape
I know about that

There is one thing you must be sure of
I can't take anymore
Darling, don't you monkey with the monkey
Hay-a-ay

Monkey... Monkey... Monkey
Don't you know you go to shock the monkey?
Hay-a-ay
Shock the monkey
Hay-a-ay

Monkey... Wheels keep turning
Monkey... Something's burning
Monkey... I don't like it but I gues I'm learning

SHOCK! SHOCK! SHOCK!
Where'd the monkey get hit
Monkey

Cover me when I sleep
Cover me when I breathe
You throw your pearls before the swine
Make the monkey blind
Cover me, darling please

Monkey... Too much at stake
Monkey... Ground beneath me shake
Monkey... And the news is breaking

SHOCK! SHOCK! SHOCK! SHOCK!
