Lyrics
She day dreams of feelings
Like in ’64
Sharp shirts and neckties
Like before the war
He dropped his briefcase
And took a stand
Came back a monster
Like nothing they had planned
He remembers when she used to be happy
Back in the days when they knew they had it all
She remembers he was handsome and dashing
Like the man in the photo on the wall
Now its all monkey work, work, work
Monkey work, work, work
She pulls out the TV
He’s on his ass
Cuts the coffee
This two shall pass
There’s a growing chasm
Inside the walls
A dark sarcasm
In the silence of it all
He remembers when she used to be happy
Back in the days when they knew they had it all
She remembers he was handsome and dashing
Like the man in the photo on the wall
Now its all monkey work, work, work
Monkey work, work, work
Now its all monkey work, work, work
Monkey work, work, work
