Monkey Suit by Elton John

Monkey Suit Lyrics

[00:01.96] If you're looking for the glory
[00:27.17] You think that you might find
[00:31.16] In a bullet-riddled stolen car
[00:34.12] On a back road in the pines
[00:39.21] If it's round just like a medal
[00:43.25] On a tired old man of war
[00:47.24] Or hidden like that Burma Star
[00:51.28] In my dad's bottom drawer
[00:55.25] Look at you in your monkey suit
[01:00.39] Driving south, nothing left to prove
[01:03.32] You come back here in your cowboy boots
[01:08.38] Dressed to kill in your monkey suit
[01:12.33] Every pose you strike, every frame they shoot
[01:15.48] Shows you dressed to kill in your monkey suit
[01:27.45] Build your ladder to the moon
[01:31.43] Beat on that sacred drum
[01:36.47] Trample on the hands of those
[01:38.57] That cling to every rung
[01:44.55] Every seed you crush beneath
[01:47.56] Like stone ground in a mill
[01:52.56] You never drew a decent breath
[01:55.55] But you're just dressed to kill
[02:01.66] Look at you in your monkey suit
[02:05.52] Driving south, nothing left to prove
[02:09.69] You come back here in your cowboy boots
[02:13.63] Dressed to kill in your monkey suit
[02:17.75] Every pose you strike, every frame they shoot
[02:21.75] Shows you dressed to kill in your monkey suit
[02:33.78] Look at you in your monkey suit
[03:09.93] Driving south, nothing left to prove
[03:13.92] You come back here in your cowboy boots
[03:17.94] Dressed to kill in your monkey suit
[03:21.90] Every pose you strike, every frame they shoot
[03:25.98] Shows you dressed to kill in your monkey suit
[04:37.27]
