Текст песни: Monkeys Uptown + перевод

I knew you well, I know you best

A baby mouth, denied the breast

A lazy bone, an eagle eye

Circling a city that’s higher than the sky

And it’s looking like you better do what they say

Those monkeys uptown, they told you not to fuck around

Heavens the name and river is brown

With all the mud and the rain, it never settles down

It never settles down

Your baby left you unimpressed

But no one likes a beggar, slightly overdressed

And trouble comes in funky clothes

You can always find a razor lying in the road

And it’s looking like you better do what they say

Those monkeys uptown, they told you not to fuck around

Heaven’s the name and river is brown

With all the mud and the rain, it never settles down

It never settles down

I knew you well, I know you best

Everybody owes something to everybody else

Gabrielle gave me some news to give to you:

«Never take him for granted, you’ve nothing better to do»

And it’s looking like you better do what they say

Those monkeys uptown, they told you not to fuck around

Heavens the name and river is brown

With all the mud and the rain, it never settles down

It never settles down
