Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?

Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?
Monkey with a monkey monkey
La la la

Oh, I count to ten
But I don't know how
And I don't know when
To open my eyes

Baby if you kiss me again
Like you did just now
Like you did just then
Just Do it again

I've had the rest
Now it's time I had the best
So you tell me
That you won't do anymore

Well I'd write your heart a letter
But I think you know me better
If I keep on asking baby, maybe
I'll get what I'm asking for

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving in to it
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?

Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?
Monkey, with a monkey, monkey
La la la

Oh, I hate your friends
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open your eyes
Yes, the monkey's back again
Do you want him now like you did back then?

I tried my best but your head is such a mess
So I guess that I don't want you anymore
Well you say you care about me
That you just can't do without me
But you keep on dancin' baby
'Til that monkey has you on the floor

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it
Do you love the monkey or do you love me?

Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?
Monkey, with a monkey, monkey
La la la

Don't look now
There's a monkey on your back
Don't look now
There's a monkey on you
Don't look now
There's a monkey on your back
Don't look now
There's a monkey on you

So you tell me
That you won't do anymore
If I keep on askin' baby, maybe
I'll get what I'm askin' for

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it
Do you love the monkey or do you love me?

Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?
Monkey, with a monkey, monkey
La la la

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it
Do you love the monkey or do you love me?

Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?
Monkey, with a monkey, monkey
La la la
