Martin Page - Monkey In My Dreams Lyrics




There's a monkey in my dreams

Clinging like a thief

Forcing my eyes open

Wrestling in my sheets


I'm living on my own now

Without you on my back

But still you keep on calling

No disappearing act


You used to be so good at that

You used to be so good at games

Now you go 'round and around

Exiting the way you came


Just a monkey in my dreams

That's what you are

A loose valve of escaping steam

That's what you are

A motor running in an empty car

That's what you are

And I won't stoop to the obscene

You're a monkey

Just a monkey

You're a monkey in my dreams

Gonna shake that monkey right outta my bed

Gonna shake that monkey right outta my head


I'm losing eight good hours

With this hollow ghost of you

Screeching in my sleep tank

Sleeping in my shoes


You used to be so good at that

You used to be so good at games

Now you go 'round and around

Exiting the way you came


Just a monkey in my dreams

That's what you are

A loose valve of escaping steam

That's what you are

A motor running in an empty car

That's what you are

And I won't stoop to the obscene

You're a monkey

Just a monkey

You're a monkey in my dreams

Gonna shake that monkey right outta my bed

Gonna shake that monkey right outta my head


Time to shake the monkey outta my bed

Time to shake the monkey outta my head


I can't reason on the phone

I won't talk to your machine

No doctor would prescribe you

No doctor is that mean


You used to be so good at that

You used to be so good at games

Now you go 'round and around

Exiting the way you came


Just a monkey in my dreams

That's what you are

A loose valve of escaping steam

That's what you are

A motor running in an empty car

That's what you are

And I won't stoop to the obscene

You're a monkey

Just a monkey

You're a monkey in my dreams

Gonna shake that monkey right outta my bed

Gonna shake that monkey right outta my head
