The rain falls all night  
Monkey screams echo in trees  
I’d rather be home

Oh, pretty monkey!  
Soaring spirit in the vines  
Don’t throw dung at me!

I woke up today  
and found a turd in my shoe.  
Die, die you monkey!  
I love Taco Johns.  
That monkey does funny shit.  
Eat tacos, ole’!

(For those of you without a Taco John’s restaurant, they have commercials featuring Whiplash the cowboy monkey.)

Plush mom so empty  
Baby Monkey goes hungry  
Dies in soft embrace
