The Orange Monkey
A restlessness took hold my brain and questions I could not hold back An orange monkey on a chain on a bleak uneven track
told me that to understand you must travel back time I took a plane to a forein land and said I'll write down what I find
Beneath a mountain's jagged shelves cloacked with snow and shadows sheer plates tipped up upon themselves the pain of fifty million years
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com and mules and goats were running wild A happy chaos carried on and old men and the young boys smiled and worked until the day was gone
Packs of sandy-coloured dogs walked streets that looked like building sites but piles of rocks and dust and smog could not hold block out a different light When I returned I ran to meet the monkey, but his face had changed He stood before me on two feet The track was now a motorway
