Monkey On My Back
(with apologies to Steven Tyler and Joe Perry)
Sung to the tune of the Aerosmith song of the same name.
Woe is me
Well, I been lyin'
Got to get that monkey off my back
The social worker looked into my eyeballs
The wrinkles on her face about to crack
She said, you best believe it, you ain't goin' nowhere
Unless you get that monkey off your back
Well, I make believe Jehovah makes me do it
I am the finest elder of the pack
You know I could have had it all, but I just blew it
Obeyin' that fuckin' monkey on my back
Ahh, if you put it in a bookbag I would sell it
Some king whose paradise is just a shack
Where do you draw the line
When all your "Truth" is lyin'
Got to get that monkey off your back
Kingdom Hall is where you chase the dragon
She said, now bring me home his head inside a sack
But now you find your kingdom balls are draggin'
Got to get that monkey off your back
