Two-steppin' Monkey Lyrics - Singles - Pete Droge

Doctor Grey was on the ferris wheel 

Missed the concert in the park 

Left his children at the old folks home 

Paints self portraits in the dark 

Plays his Mozart loud, cuts the coupons out 

He thanks psychology for paying 

But that pension plan's got less 

To give than he ever wanted 

He's just a two steppin' monkey 

A two steppin monkey's all he'll ever be 

And I'm just a two steppin' monkey too 

So let's put him in the zoo with you and me 

Billy Cambell revved his engine up 

Hit the strip on a Friday night 

Parked his truck outside the convenience store 

Walked inside and shot the clerk 

Found some time to kill, thrills were hard to find 

Now it's hard time in the pen 

But that jail cell's got less 

To give than he ever wanted 

He's just a two steppin' monkey 

A two steppin' monkey's all he'll ever be 

And I'm just a two steppin' monkey too 

So let's put him in the zoo with you and me 

The rent was paid again too late this week 

And Mr. Maxwell's got his tie too tight 

Thought it might change the way his girlfriend felt 

To see him dressing up at night 

He's got his cigarettes and his amphetamines 

He's got his coffee in the morning 

But that construction site's got less 

To give than he ever wanted 

He's just a two steppin' monkey 

A two steppin' monkey's all he'll ever be 

And I'm just a two steppin' monkey too 

So let's put him in the zoo with you and me
