Possible Shake Me Like A Monkey Lyrics??

The thing I like about you
The way you do what you do
The thing i like about you
God and the devil alone could not have made you up

Two must have worked as one together
So good just want to eat you up
Let me like the real thing
Lick your sticky fingers boy and sing for your dinner sing

Come on pretty babe make me lose my mind
Everybody get together gonna make love shine



Do you know what it is to feel the light of love inside you?
And all the darkness falls away
If you feel the way I feel then believe we have the answer
I've been searching for tonight
Love me baby love me baby shake me like a monkey
forever i'm yours



I can't stop thinking about you
yeah yeah yeah
why would i want to
I like coffee with toast and jelly
But i'd rather be licking from your back to your belly
I think I'm going to



Do you know what it is to feel the light of love inside you?
And all the darkness falls away
If you feel the way I feel then believe we have the answer
I've been searching for tonight
Love me baby love me baby shake me like a monkey
forever i'm yours




Cigarettes and coffee broken heart and being lonely little girls
And ponies are the things that go together
Yes and no you have to choose Romeo and Juliet to hang their noose
You and me would go together

Kiss Kiss make a wish
Hope that it comes true
But I ain't waiting for the world to change
Gonna change the world for you

Come on pretty baby make you ose your mind
Everybody get together gonna make love shine




Do you know what it is to feel the light of love inside you?
And all the darkness falls away
If you feel the way I feel then believe we have the answer
I've been searching for tonight
Love me baby love me baby shake me like a monkey
forever i'm yours



Come on everybody make me lose my mind
Everybody get together gonna make love shine

Was this on a lyrics site? Probably fake.

Re: Possible Shake Me Like A Monkey Lyrics??

if so, those just might be Dave's worst lyrics yet.

Where did you find that by the way?

well, the first two lines are correct by the taste of big whiskey video we got a few weeks ago:

Some look all right, some look just downright silly. It's like it's trying to be Rapunzel, but without the brilliant subtlety.

that doesn't give it credibility

Matt said on twitter that it's his favorite song on the album. These are not the lyrics

All lyrics from all three songs thus far are way too forced. So far, I've seen none of the "brilliant subtlety" that once made Dave a great lyricist.

Hmm... I think Why I Am's lyrics are fantastic. And Spaceman's aren't bad at all.

Because, taking two lines that we know doesn't give credibility to it because anyone can take them and write whatever they want.

and I don't think Matt and Jake would have liked the song so much if these were the lyrics but who knows

You ass.

Even FTWII has better lyrics than anything from Stand Up. FTWII is a great song. There are so many well-written lines in that song. It's not repetitive, the vocals are emotive... Christ, if you want "Typical Situation" then go listen to f**** "Typical Situation."

The 90's were a long time ago. It was a different style. Dave is still writing great songs but just because they don't have completely cryptic lyrics doesn't make them bad songs. He put his heart and soul into making this album.

So much bitching. Such ungrateful so-called fans.

Some of these aren't bad but if David John Matthews wrote "Cigarettes and coffee broken heart and being lonely little girls And ponies are the things that go together"

seems to me he already explained that he doesn't feel the need to divulge said information.

With that said it is funny because some lines actually really sound like something Dave would write (in a good way) and others sound just like stuff dave would write (in a bad I call you up you pick up way) HAHA

Didn't know that me joking around and Stan being a little bitch was actual remembered but we're just looking for some clarity. This just makes no sense.

Cigarettes and coffee broken heart and being lonely little girls
And ponies are the things that go together
Yes and no you have to choose Romeo and Juliet to hang their noose
You and me would go together

Eh they're not deep, profound, moving, thoughtful, or relatable. In fact, they hardly make sense. And at the times when they do, they are hardly inspiring. Both Why I Am and Proudest Monkey deal with essentially the same subject, but be honest, which one do you think is superior?

Re: Possible Shake Me Like A Monkey Lyrics??

Alls I know is that if these turn out to really be the lyrics I am glad I was warned becasue without proper warning I would have never made it past the first track as I would have taken the vinyl off the turntable and thrown it against the wall.
