Green Monkey

When the deep blue night is running close on your track
 And you can feel the green monkey crawlin' across your back
 Don't take me so real that you forget how to feel
 Don't let the threat of the dagger turn your heart into steel
 Smell the perfume of the silent dream
 Fly the ocean, read a story to me
 Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree
 Speak to me
 So you think that star cluster shining bright in the sky
 Will speak the fate of your evening, tell the truth to your lie
 Don't let the features you read control the tickets you buy
 Soon as you learn that you live, you're just beginning to die
 Smell the perfume of the silent dream
 Fly the ocean, read a story to me
 Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree
 Speak to me
 Smell the perfume of the silent dream
 Fly the ocean, read a story to me
 Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree
 Speak to me
