PROUDEST MONKEY

[dawgman]

Proudest Monkey
Swing in this tree
Oh I am bounce around so well
Branch to branch,
limb to limb you see
All in a day's dream
I'm stuck
Like the other monkeys here
I am a humble monkey
Sitting up in here again
But then came the day
I climbed out of these safe limbs
Ventured away
Walking tall, head high up and singing
I went to the city
Car horns, corners and the gritty
Now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do

Then comes the day
Staring at myself I turn to question me
I wonder do I want the simple, simple life that I once lived in well
Oh things were quiet then
In a way they were the better days
But now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do

1. DMB- Last Stop (also reminds me of Chimpy)

Fire
The sun is well asleep
The moon is high above
But fire grows from the East
And how is this
Hate so deep?
Lead us all so blindly, killing, killing
Fools are we
If hate's the gate to peace
This is the last stop.

For raining tears...

War
The only way to peace
Well, I don't fall for that
Raining tears
You're righteous, so righteous...
You're always so right
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead believe that you are the chosen one

Raining tears...

Oh no
Gracious even God
Bloodied on the cross
Your sins are washed enough
A mother's cry:
"Is hate so deep
Must my baby's bones
This hungry fire feed?"
Smoke clouds roll in
The symphony of death
This is the last stop.

Scream
Right is wrong now
Ha, shut up you big lie
This black and white lie
You comb your hair to hide
Your lying eyes
You're righteous, so righteous...
You're always so right
But why your lie
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead believe that you are the chosen one
This is the best stop.

Here there's always blowing up
And I hope that we can break it down
So it's not so black and white
This is the last stop.

Here there's more than showing us
And I hope that we can break it down
So it's not so black and white
Black and white
You're righteous, you're righteous...
You're always so right
And there you are nailing a good tree
And then say forgive me, forgive me
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead believe that you are the chosen one

This is the last stop...

Here there is more than growing up
And I hope that we can break it back
It's not so black and white
So right...

2. I posted that once

when I was very new to DU and got flamed by people who thought DMB was a terrible band. I personaly love them. They are so good in concert, been to three and never been disappointed. I had been toying with the idea of a sig line with something from Last Stop. Thanks, I must get my CDs out of the back of my truck.

On Edit I have a 2 year old horse that I registered under the name of Docs Dancing Nancy, one of my favorite songs. Proudest Monkey and Two Step are a couple of choices for the next batch of babies.
