lyrics

The famous rider of the car race
Is in lead he's gonna make the first place
But then - What happened? - something mysterious
So strange that no one will take me serious

He pushes the brake and drives on the side
As he reaches the homestrait in the last of the laps
With the audience on the left and the track on the right
He gets off and does a few jamaican dance steps

You see the monkey and he's groovin high
You see him skippin but you don't know why
Have you ever wondered why he's in that
Sunlight and a raincloud is above your head

Recently at the supermarket checkout
The cashier just wanted to have a time out
Right before a lady with the size of a tank
And a fur she stood up and took a little skank

"Get back to your work" said the lady in the fur
I said she has no fault she's just a rude girl
"Did I ask you?" No! "You impudent fool"
Shut up - go away and remember what I say

You see the monkey and she's groovin high
You see her skippin but you don't know why
Have you ever wondered why she's in that
Sunlight and a raincloud is above your head
