Don't Gyp the Monkey

(James Downham, Mark Smith)

Ambition tastes too much like selling out
Success feels less and less like getting out
Getting ahead tastes more like kissing a crown
Climbing the ladder feels like falling down

And now you've got me gripping situations
And now you've got me sorting consequences
Tell me where you went
Never mind; I'm breaking the fence

Run monkey run monkey run monkey run
Run monkey run monkey run monkey run

And flattery won't change the way I seem to see
A half-assed effort is not so bad for a full-time ass like me

You're only the worldly
You're only the worldly...

Compliments feel more like planting seeds
Friendship tastes more and more like plucking weeds
Loyalty seems more like a ball and chain
Sacrifice tastes more like material gain

And now you've got me checking the horizon
And now I see you; what you've got your eyes on
Without our consent
Never mind; I'm breaking the fence

Run monkey run monkey run monkey run
Run monkey run monkey run monkey run

And truthfully, the dirt's not where you find the ground
And I won't bend another knee or take this lying down

You're only the worldly
You're only the worldly...

And suddenly there's a million mad united calls
And we don't need your fucking keys
We're tearing down the walls

You're only the worldly
You're only the worldly...
