[00:08.798] Tweeter and the monkey man were hard up for cash
[00:13.071] They stayed up all night selling cocaine and hash
[00:16.936] To an undercover cop who had a sister named jan
[00:21.012] For reasons unexplained she loved the monkey man
[00:25.678] Tweeter was a boy scout before she went to vietnam
[00:30.035] And found out the hard way nobody gives a damn
[00:34.168] They knew that they found freedom just across the jersey line
[00:38.588] So they hopped into a stolen car took highway 99
[00:43.730] And the walls came down
[00:47.644] all the way to hell
[00:52.043] Never saw them when they're standing
[00:54.145] Never saw them when they fell
[00:58.730] The undercover cop never liked the monkey man
[01:03.212] Even back in childhood he wanted to see him in the can
[01:07.252] Jan got married at fourteen to a rackateer named bill
[01:11.316] She made secret calls to the monkey man from a mansion on the hill
[01:15.949] It was out on thunder road - tweeter at the wheel
[01:20.057] They crashed into paradise - they could hear them tires squeal
[01:24.598] The undercover cop pulled up and said everyone of yous a liar
[01:28.614] If you don't surrender now it's gonna go down to the wire
[01:32.689] And the walls came down
[01:37.170] all the way to hell
[01:42.255] Never saw them when they're standing
[01:43.591] Never saw them when they fell
[01:54.610] An ambulance rolled up - a state trooper close behind
[01:58.870] Tweeter took his gun away and messed up his mind
[02:03.514] The undercover cop was left tied up to a tree
[02:07.449] Near the souvenir stand by the old abandoned factory
[02:12.186] Next day the undercover cop was hot in pursuit
[02:16.335] He was taking the whole thing personal
[02:18.762] He didn't care about the loot
[02:20.979] Jan had told him many times it was you to me who taught
[02:24.903] In jersey anythings legal as long as you don't get caught
[02:29.235] And the walls came down
[02:33.960] all the way to hell
[02:38.463] Never saw them when they're standing
[02:40.159] Never saw them when they fell
[02:50.922] Someplace by rahway prison they ran out of gas
[02:55.263] The undercover cop had cornered them said boy, you didn't
[02:58.897] Think that this could last
[03:00.640] Jan jumped out of bed said there's someplace I gotta go
[03:03.796] She took a gun out of the drawer and said it's best if you don't know
[03:08.198] The undercover cop was found face down in a field
[03:12.237] The monkey man was on the river bridge using tweeter as a shield
[03:16.777] Jan said to the monkey man Im not fooled by tweeters curl
[03:21.141] I knew him long before he ever became a jersey girl
[03:25.623] And the walls came down
[03:30.500] all the way to hell
[03:34.795] Never saw them when they're standing
[03:36.479] Never saw them when they fell
[03:47.264] Now the town of jersey city is quieting down again
[03:51.595] Im sitting in a gambling club called the lions den
[03:56.355] The tv set been blown up, every bit of it is gone
[04:00.383] Ever since the nightly news show that the monkey man was on
[04:05.074] I guess I'll to to florida and get myself some sun
[04:09.278] There aint no more opportunity here, everythings been done
[04:13.480] Sometime I think of tweeter, sometime I think of jan
[04:17.857] Sometime I don't think about nothing but the monkey man
[04:22.455] And the walls came down
[04:27.068] all the way to hell
[04:31.255] Never saw them when they're standing
[04:32.880] Never saw them when they fell
[04:35.380] And the walls came down
[04:39.849] all the way to hell
[04:43.901] Never saw them when they're standing
[04:45.841] Never saw them when they fell
