Proudest Monkey - Lyrics by Dave Matthews


Lyrics

Swing in this tree
Oh i am bounce around so well
Branch to branch,
Limb to limb you see
All in a day's dream
I'm stuck
Like the other monkeys here
I am a humble monkey
Sitting up in here again
But then came the day
I climbed out of these safe limbs
Ventured away
Walking tall, head high up and singing
I went to the city
Car horns, corners and the gritty
Now i am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do
Then comes the day
Staring at myself i turn to question me
I wonder do i want the simple, simple life that i once lived in well
Oh things were quiet then
In a way they were the better days
But now i am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
