Ready For The Monkeyhouse Lyrics - Waterboys

Your face is like 

the moment when the sexist hero traps 

The slippy villain with the weasel face 

you don't have to speak 

Your expression is the truth 

that your words don't say 

And the truth won't go away 

in many dark corners I have thought myself about this 

Did you do it out of malice 

did you fall or were you kissed.

Could you ask your friend in the cowboy jacket 

and those boots up to his knee 

Would he shut his mouth for me 

I've heard just enough 

All I want to hear about pipes and drums 

and how little time it takes the clutz to come 

The golden gift of silence 

is I don't have to hear you speak 

So would you take him out yourself 

before I put you both back in the street 

Photos 

Now the story shifts 

and we see a young man 

Standing in the wings 

too old before his time 

Collecting grey hairs 

he's proud and he's scared and he says "I don't care" 

How can he be so blind 

so how did you corrupt him 

You must have got him where it counts 

now he's so numb he's ready to freeze 

And you're ready for the monkey house 

Ready for the monkey house 

the monkey house but you won't take me
