The Monkey on Your Shoulder

Hello!
Are you still around?
Did you hit solid ground
When you fell?

I never knew if you were one of us
A betrayer
Hadn't much to say though
You spoke so well

Hello!
Are you still around?
Fooling the only one
You know

But did you find what you were looking for
A solution
Some kind of conclusion

But don't turn around
Don't look back if you can't face what you might find

Who’s the monkey on your shoulder?
Driving you mad
Who’s the monkey on your shoulder?
Keeping you sad
You’ve gotta get him off your body
Make him disappear
Who’s the monkey on your shoulder?
Sticking lies in your ears

Hello!
Are you still around?
Waiting to be found
At last

Thinking 'bout the things you never did
I am sorry
Not much of a story

But don't turn around
Don't look back if you can't face what you might find

Who’s the monkey on your shoulder?
Driving you mad
Who’s the monkey on your shoulder?
Keeping you sad
You’ve gotta get him off your body
Make him disappear
Who’s the monkey on your shoulder?
Sticking lies in your ears

We didn't pick your lovers
We didn't call you that
We didn't blow your chances
We didn't cover it up

We didn't buy you liquor
We didn't steal your bike
We didn't screw your mother
Or did we anyhow?
