We both know it's your game and I'm just playing along |
|
I'll just be your monkey and be made to believe I'm paranoid |
|
Cuz that's easier for me than to believe what I have seen |
|
So ooh-ooh-ah-ah-ooh-ooh-ah-ah when I ask for you and |
|
you don't condescend to respond |
|
The rules of the game change |
|
But the banana stays in the cage |
|
You can squeeze your hand between the bars |
|
But you can't have your hand back |
|
When one you love has grown tired in such a substantial way |
|
Too bad we're each no more strong than we are |
|
and there's just nothing to say |
|
But if you really insist on squashing me like a bug |
|
Couldn't you be merciful and just stomp on me instead of |
|
this prolonged smear |
|
My 8 mangled legs kick and twist |
|
My 5 dozen eyes reflect back on themselves |
|
But insects don't eat bananas |
