Monkey's Paw

Well I stopped in at the Body Shop

Said to the guy,

I want stereo FM installed in my teeth

And take this mole off my back

And put it on my cheek.

And uh while I'm here, why don't you give me

Some of those high-heeled feet?

And he said, listen there's no guarantee

Nature's got rules and nature's got laws

But listen look out for the monkey's paw

And I said, what? He said,

The gift of life it's a twist of fate

It's a roll of the die

It's a free lunch a free ride

But nature's got rules and nature's got laws

And if you cross her look out!

It's the monkey's paw

It's sayin', haw haw!

It's saying, gimme five!

It's sayin', bye bye!

I know a man he lost his head

He said, the way I feel I'd be better off dead.

He said, I got everything I ever wanted

Now I can't give it up

It's a trap, just my luck!

The gift of life it's a leap of faith

It's a roll of the die

It's a free lunch A free ride

The gift of life it's a shot in the dark

It's the call of the wild

It's the big wheel The big ride

But Nature's got rules and Nature's got laws

And if you cross her look out!

It's the monkey's paw

You better Stop!

Look around!

Listen!

You could be an ocarina salesman

Going from door to door.

Or would you like to swing on a star

And carry moon-beams home?

Or next time around you could be a small bug

Or would you like to be a fish?

The gift of life it's a twist of fate

It's a roll of the die

It's a free lunch a free ride

The gift of life it's a shot in the dark

It's the call of the wild

It's the big wheel the big ride

But nature's got rules and nature's got laws

And if you cross her look out!

It's the monkey's paw

It's singin', gimme Five!

It's singin', bye Bye!
