[Verse 1]

All dressed up, no place to go

Hey monkey, when you gonna

Show your face around me?

I know all the wrongs and rights

And I just want a little light to fall on me


[Chorus]

Hey monkey, where you been?

This lonely spiral I've been in

Hey monkey, when can we begin?

Hey monkey, where you been?


[Verse 2]

Well, I'm all messed up, that's nothing new

Hey monkey, when you open up your blue eyes

I don't know if I'm wide awake or dreaming

But all I ever need is everything


[Chorus]


[Verse 3]

Just get the world off your shoulders

And close your pretty blue eyes

Hey monkey, what's life without

An occasional surprise?


[Verse 4]

I got nowhere but home to go

Got Ben Folds on my radio right now

And I'm in trouble for the things I need

Hey monkey, don't you want to be needed too?


[Chorus]


[Outro]

Hey monkey, where you been?

Hey monkey, where you been?
