thought i’d something more to say
one less thing to do
thought i’d cured myself
thought i’d cured you too

but i jumped the gun
and landed on the knife
found another circle to run
watched the monkey at the wheel
wondered if he saw me smile
as he paused
and passed me by again
i saw him shake his head
at the monkey on the run

what was it i had to say
something else to do
i know i’ll cure myself
i know i can’t cure you

when i jumped the gun
and landed on the knife
i saw the monkey laughing
as he paused
and passed me by again
i saw him shake his head
at the monkey on the run

at the monkey on the run
i saw him shake his head
as he paused
and passed me by again
i saw the monkey laughing
at the monkey on the run

thought i’d something more to say
something else to do
thought i’d cure myself
thought i’d cure you too
