The Monkey Song

[Verse 1]
Cool air falls through the venetian blinds
And the planets in the heavens are perfectly aligned
I take in my surroundings, I memorize them all
The scuff marks on the stone floor
The powder burns on the eastern wall

[Chorus 1]
There's a monkey in the basement
How did the monkey get there?
There's a monkey in the basement
Where did the monkey come from?
Where did the monkey come from?
Where did the monkey come from?

[Verse 2]
The animal noises you used to make
The Andalusian coral snake
All pale when standing beside this room
And the heavy hot rains and the sonic boom

[Chorus 2]
There's a monkey in the basement
Where did the monkey come from?
There's a monkey in the basement
How did the monkey get there?
How did the monkey get there?
How did the monkey get there?
