Money Makes The Monkey Dance

Money Makes The Monkey Dance - Nil Lara

You are about to embark on a journey

You are going to visit monkeys dolphins and people

I look around and all I see are politicians on the take

I look at me I am the same but I don't notice

And I have learned that everybody has a price tag on his head

Though it's money that will make the monkey dance

Yes it's money that will make the monkey dance

And it's money that will make the monkey dance

Yes it's money that will make the monkey monkey monkey dance

On Sunday mornings when I went to church a buck was always made

A true parade to pave the way into the glory

And 30 coins was all they paid for all the ways I should behave

Though it's money that will make the monkey dance

Yes it's money that will make the monkey dance

And it's money that will make the monkey dance

Yes it's money that will make the monkey dance

Aye awa ko ako

And I have paid my way through life I've kept myself so far removed

From everyone and everything that could be purchased

I will collect what I've put in my piggy bank is locked within

Though it's money that will make the monkey dance

Yes it's money that will make the monkey dance

And it's money that will make the monkey dance

Oh I want money

Give me money

So much money

Tender money

Cause it's money that will make the monkey dance

I'm the monkey I'm the monkey

Eh marará¡ i

And though my pockets have a hole I feel content within my soul

I've been sincere with all the customers encountered

I can't complain I'm rich in love and I must thank my god above

Though it's money that will make the monkey dance

Yes it's money that will make the monkey dance

And it's money that will make the monkey dance

Yes it's money that will make the monkey dance

Aá¡ i
