lyrics
You picked the wrong monkey this time
‘cuz this one won’t be dancing at the end of your line
You picked the wrong monkey this time
Working for treats is hardly the pinnacle
Of my ambition, so I’ll leave you singing
That we sweet old song that we both know
One monkey don’t stop the show, One monkey don’t stop the show,
One monkey don’t stop the show,
Ooh, oooh, ooh, ooh
At first it was wild swinging ‘round in your trees
Oooh ooh Oooh, ooh, some damage was done going down, but just on my knees
But now Miss slip and slide I’m saddened to realize just how beat and washed up this act of yours feels
Oooh, oooh, ooh, ooh
Yes, the lights and your sequins were surely beguiling
Oooh, oooh, ooh, ooh.
A backstage glance showed the phony behind your smiling
Grimaldi’s white face held me in place, but now I’m going out on my own
Chorus
You say you don’t do drama when you’re in the last act of King Lear
If I wasn’t your top banana. this should be a one woman show from here
And once I tear your ticket you’re never will be let back in, no you never will be let back in
You picked the wrong monkey this time

Tanya, thank you, thank you thank you for Sweet Ghost of Light. I don't know where I'd heard you'd done this cover, but I bugged you on FB a while back and then on Twitter more recently about releasing it, and I can't help thinking I had a small hand in its release! Your voice is perfect for it. limprichard

It takes the pandemic away. "Orpheus with his lute made trees,
And the mountain tops that freeze,
Bow themselves, when he did sing:
To his music plants and flowers
Ever sprung; as sun and showers
There had made a lasting spring.
Every thing that heard him play,
Even the billows of the sea,
Hung their heads, and then lay by.
In sweet music is such art,
Killing care and grief of heart
Fall asleep, or hearing, die.
