letra de monkey and his cat (live) - john wesley harding

[intro]
a two, three four five six

[verse 1]
monkey keeps his cat up in a cage upon the stage
the crowned heads of europe clear the wonder of the age
’cause the cat’s just like a bird
and good old monkey grinds the tune
and the cat will dance fandangos just above the footlight moon
then he’ll make a very birdlike sound
monkey makes him flop upon the ground
as though he’s flying
some people think he’s dying
[chorus]
man got his monkey
monkey got his cat
cat got his flea, flea’s got me
evеrybody’s free to work on the act
monkey and his cat

[verse 2]
cat hisses at monkеy as he milks all the applause
above the clank of change that ricochets across the floor
monkey says i love you and returns him to the cage
bows to all the ladies and then exits from the stage
the cat is dressed up as a p-ss in boots
monkey wears a sparkling new suit
just like a human
all the girls are swooning

[chorus]
man got his monkey
monkey got his cat, yeah
cat got his flea, flea’s got me
everybody’s free to work on the act
monkey and his cat
monkey and his cat
monkey
[verse 3]
monkey and his cat retrieve the key and go within
the humble home sweet home where they so quietly live in sin
a man will bring them supper as he sits before the fire
once he was the grinder, now he has to work for hire
he didn’t keep his finger on the pulse
the audience demanded something else
a new distraction
some cat and monkey action

[chorus]
man got his monkey
monkey got his cat, yeah
cat got his flea, flea’s got me
everybody’s free to work on the act
monkey and his cat
monkey and his cat
monkey and his cat
i’m the monkey, she’s the cat
monkey and his cat

[outro]
this is a protest song. may i? some say he doth protest too much.
