Green Monkeys Lyrics - Graham Parker

Pre> 

E b 

In a distant street a distant beat repeats machine gun like 

In a forest grows a sweet fruit filled with poison 

In a clear blue sky a plane bursts into flames high above us 

In an office blind machines blink out data in a rush 

C#m g#m a b 

Whatever they say they say it isn't true what they say 

C#m g#m a b 

It didn't come from the gays the blacks the haitians or the whores or 

Chorus 

E a b e a b 

Green monkeys ya ya ya yah or green monkeys ya ya ya yah
