One Monkey
Doctor try'n' to tell me
That I'm gettin' low on sap
I'm in a strange, she's try'n' to drink me in
I think I got the clap
Oh, no, that ain't the way I wanna go
Oh, no, one monkey don't stop no show

Po-lice try'n' to catch me
Gonna put my ass in jail
So it's the end, I got no friends
An' I'll never make my bail
Oh, no, that ain't the way I wanna go
Oh, no, one monkey don't stop no show

Wa-oww!

Fireman wants to sue me
Said, "I'll set your ass on fire."
Said, "I'll beat ya, I'll mistreat ya."
He's a fuckin' liar
Oh, no, one monkey don't stop no show
Oh, no, that ain't the way I wanna go

Warden wants to put me
Said, in the 'lectric chair
Said, "Good riddance to bad rubbish."
He don't really even care
Oh, no, that ain't the way I gonna go
Oh, no, one monkey don't stop no show
Yeah-aw
Fireman wants to sue me
Said, "I'll set your ass on fire."
Said, "I'll beat ya, I'll mistreat ya."
He's a fuckin' liar
Oh, no, one monkey don't stop no show
Oh, no, that ain't the way I wanna go

Warden wants to put me
In the ee-lectric chair
Says, "Good riddance to bad rubbish."
He don't really even care
But oh, no, one monkey don't stop no show
Oh, no, that ain't the way I'm gonna go
Wa-oww!
