America - Green Monkey Lyrics
When the deep blue night is running close on your track
And you can feel the green monkey crawlin' across your back
Don't take me so real that you forget how to feel
Don't let the threat of the dagger turn your heart into steel
Fly the ocean, read a story to me
Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree
Speak to me
So you think that star cluster shining bright in the sky
Will speak the fate of your evening, tell the truth to your lie
Don't let the features you read control the tickets you buy
Soon as you learn that you live, you're just beginning to die
Smell the perfume of the silent dream
Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree
Speak to me
Smell the perfume of the silent dream
Fly the ocean, read a story to me
Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree
Speak to me

America Green Monkey Comments
The Home Depot Theme stole this jam.
Joe Walsh on guitar!
They went a bit harder on this one. Has an edge that surprised me.
The edge was provided by Joe Walsh on lead guitar
This band is not only musically talented as fuck, but damn those are the best lyrics of any song/poem. I wonder if their songs weren't sum kinda inspuration 4 Kobain.
Fantastic.
Joe Walsh for president!
