Monkey In The Family Lyrics - Singles - Happy Mondays

Its delicious the way you're walking 

Go easy on your toes 

There's a million and one different dances 

Who do you know that knows 

There's a monkey in the family 

It was trained by Adam and Eve 

It was sold to your great-great-granddad and grandma 

And decided it wouldn't leave 

I had to make the grass more greener 

I had to make the sky more blue 

I had to put a stop to the Jungle Jive team 

So they don't do the dance with you 

When you grow up you'll moon stomp mi lady 

To moon stomp is in your blood 

You'll have to make a keen decision 

But you'll know everything about love 

There's a monkey in the family 

Swings from tree to tree 

It never stops to see how you're doing 

It just has time to feed 

I had to make the grass more greener 

I had to make the sky more blue 

I had to put a stop to the Jungle Jive team 

So they don't do the dance on you 

There's a monkey in the family 

It was trained by Adam and eve 

It was sold to your great-great-granddad and grandma 

And decided it wouldn't leave 

I had to make the grass more greener 

I had to make the sky more blue 

I had to put a stop to the Jungle Jive team 

So they don't do the dance with you 

It's delightful the way you're walking 

Be steady on those feet 

Stay away from the Peppermint Twist 

Where the Humpty Humpers meet 

There's a monkey in the family 

It was trained by Adam and Eve 

It was sold to your great-great-granddad and grandma 

And decided it wouldn't leave 

I had to make the grass more greener 

I had to make the sky more blue 

I had to put a stop to the Jungle Jive team 

So they don't do the dance with you 

There's a monkey in the family 

There's a monkey in the family 

There's a monkey in the family
