lyrics

Space monkey in the place to be
Lying in a rocket to a planet of sound
Shooting the man, playing dominoes and drag
An increasing population of 100 percent
Space monkey in the place to be
With a chemical appeal and a picture of Mary
Out on a limb in the carnival of me
Raising the temperature 100 degrees

We're sewn together
She's born to Mesmer
Beside I stride her
I die inside her

Space monkey in the place to be
A mass of contradictions in a golden frame
Raising the roof in a calamity way
Completely meretricious of a poke in the eye
Space monkey in the place to be
Talk of the town with a Columbian walk
Out on a limb in the carnival of me
Raising the temperature 100 degrees

We're sewn together
She's born to Mesmer
Beside I stride her
I die inside her
Its far to sacred
Don't ever fake it
And don't don't don't let me down
Like you let me down before
Like you let me down before

Space monkey in the place to be
With some free association and a hole in her head
Out on a limb in the carnival of me
Raising the temperature 100 degrees

We're sewn together
She's born to Mesmer
Beside I stride her
I die inside her
Its far to sacred
Don't ever fake it
And don't don't don't let me down
Like you let me down before
