Lyrics Devendra Banhart – Little Monkey
Text:
Little yellow spider laughing at the snow
Well maybe that spider knows something that
I don’t know ’cause I’m god damned cold
Little white monkey staring at the sand
I couldn’t understand, who knows
Well I came upon a dancing crab and I stopped
To watch it shake, I said….dance with me just
One more time before you hybernate and you come
Out a crab cake
Hey there little snapping turtle snapping at a
Shell, there’s mysteries inside I know but what
They are I really can’t tell, for sure
Hey there little baby crow you’re looking kind
Of mean I think I ought to spit before you start
Letting off your steam, for sure
Hey there little sexy pig you made it with a man,
And now you’ve got a little kid with hooves instead
Of hands
Ohh all of the animals
All the animals
Hey there little mockingbird, they sing about you
In songs where you been, have you broke a wing i
Haven’t heard you in so long
Hey there little albatross, swimming in the air and
Come on you know I can’t fly and I think we really
Oughtta play fair
Hey there mr happy squid, you move so psychedelically,
You hypnotize with your dance all the other animals
In the sea, for sure
Ohh all of the animals
All the animals
Hey there mr morning sun, what kind of creature are you,
I can’t stare but I know that you’re there, god damn how
I wish I knew
Hey there misses lovely moon you’re lonely and you’re
Blue, it’s kinda strange the way you change, but then
Again we all do too
Hmmmmm hmmmmm
All of the animals
All the animals
