Monkey On Your Back

Before you know what′s wrong with you Feel that monkey is sitting on your back That's when you must realise that For you it′s too late to crawl back That's when you must perceive Your world is built out of make belief That's when you wanna go but just can′t leave That′s when you even need a shot to get a breeze That's when your bed is gonna be your day And when you ain′t got it you can't even move your head That′s when everything you touch seems unreal And you don't even know how and what you feel Well if that′s the way you want it to be You better don't come to see me no more I don't wanna be around to see your world is tumbling down I′d like to keep my feet right on the ground That′s why I don't want you around The way you put yourself down don′t appeal too much to me I tried to show you the way out You're on the leave, aren′t you I thought you were some way out Well I think I've done everything I could I even loved you when it didn′t go no good
Don't you tell me you love me so I don't care a damn and I already know Don′t you think that I feel sorry for you And don′t think about it if that's new to you And I don′t care what you're gonna do Maybe you discover something new And that makes me feel all right So please girl Why don′t you go away, leave me alone I still got a home That's where I′m gonna stay Stay home
