| You see the gentleman over there? |
| He did so well in school |
| He played it safe, no ragged edges |
| He knew all the rules |
| He read books about life in Bohemia, kept his desires in line |
| You never know just who might be lookin' and question your state of mind |
| I am the Monkey Man |
| Dance with me |
| Oh whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah |
| I am the Monkey Man |
| In your dreams |
| There’s no escaping me |
| You see the gentleman over there? |
| He is his father’s son |
| He knows so many facts and figures |
| He knows nothing about love |
| He has dreams he can’t explain |
| He hears small creatures from 'round |
| He feels the rhythm, he smells the flowers |
| Life is weeping to the ground |
| Yeah yeah yeah |
| I am the Monkey Man |
| Dance with me |
| Oh whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah |
| I am the Monkey Man |
| In your dreams |
| There’s no escaping me |
| Passion is a flower that grows in a tree in some other garden like mine |
| If love is just a game, just another name, then it’s not even worth a try |
| See the gentleman over there? |
| You might envy his life |
| He’s got two houses, one in the country |
| He’s got a beautiful wife |
| He lives in fear, he lives in hope |
| He might lose control |
| The animal, yeah, that might escape a man and lead him to his soul |
| Yeah yeah yeah |
| I am the Monkey Man |
| Dance with me |
| Oh whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah |
| I am the Monkey Man |
| In your dreams |
| There’s no escaping me |
| There’s no escaping |
| There’s no escaping |
| There’s no escaping me |
| I am the Monkey Man |
| In your dreams |
| There’s no escaping me |
| I am the Monkey Man |
| Dance with me |
| Oh whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah |
| I am the Monkey Man |
| In your dreams |
