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
