Monkey In The Middle

Slip me the answer or give me a clue

Do you think the party is all about you

You're in the middle, you're everywhere

Sometimes out of focus, but you're always there.

You wake up at sundown, you're in the wrong bed

With all these questions eating your head 

Who did you meet there?, What did you do?

Forgotten by many, remembered by few.

You think everybody loves you, but everybody hates the same

Monkey in the middle

Urban jungle, hall of fame 

Everybody loves you, still nobody knows your name..

..your name.

I'll slip you the answer, I'll give you a clue

Don't think the party is all about you

You're in the middle, but you're nowhere

Always out of focus, but what do you care?

You think everybody loves you, but everybody hates the same

Monkey in the middle

Urban jungle, hall of fame 

Everybody loves you, still nobody knows your name..

..your name.

It took us so long to see

But your monkey-suit will crack

The beauty will come off in flakes

Your tiny plastic world will quake.

You think everybody loves you, but everybody hates the same

Monkey in the middle

Urban jungle, hall of fame 

Everybody loves you, but everybody hates the same

Monkey in the middle

Urban jungle, hall of fame

Everybody loves you, still nobody knows your name..

..your name.
