专辑:《Kill To Get Crimson》

Theyre driving long nails into coffins

Youve been having sleepless nights

Youve gone as quiet as a church mouse

And checking on your rights

The boss has hung you out to dry

And it looks as though
Punish the monkey

And let the organ grinder go

Youve been talking to a lawyer

Are you gonna pretend

That you and your employer

Are still the best of friends?

Somebodys gonna take the fall

There's your quid pro quo

Punish the monkey

Punish the monkey, yeah

Punish the monkey

And let the organ grinder go

Here comes a policeman

He wont be sidetracked

Hes asking bout a smoking gun
Hes after the bad

Its a quiet life from here on in
You dropped your poisoned cup

The telephone is ringing

But youre not picking up

Times I've said are flunky

And everybody knows
Punish the monkey

(Punish the monkey)
Punish the monkey, yeah

(Punish the monkey)
Punish the monkey

And let the organ grinder go

Punish the monkey

(Punish the monkey)
Punish the monkey, yeah

(Punish the monkey)
Punish the monkey

And let the organ grinder go

Punish the monkey

Punish the monkey

Punish the monkey

Punish the monkey
