Lyrics The Youngbloods

The Youngbloods

Monkey Business

Runnin' to-and-fro, hard workin' at the mill

Never fail in the mail, yeah, come a rotten bill

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in

Salesman talkin' to me, tryin' to run me up a creek

Says you can buy now, gone try, you can pay me next week, ah

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in

Blond have good looks, tryin' to get me hooked

Want me to marry, get a home, settle down, write a book

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in

Same thing every day, gettin' up, goin' to school

No need for me to complain, my objection's overruled, ah

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in

Take home, something wrong, dime gone, will hold

Order suit, hoppered up for telling me a tale, ah

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in

Been to Yokohama, been fightin' in the war

Army bunk, Army chow, Army clothes, Army car, ah

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in

Workin' in the fillin' station, too many tasks

Wipe the windows, check the tires, check the oil, dollar gas, ah

Too much monkey business, too much monkey business

I don't want your botheration, get away, leave me

Too much monkey business for me
