monkey off my back/foe to friend
i glad that’s over, what made you come down
well we attract what we are but you turned your life around
i was lazy and you were like me, so i hopped on board and let you carry me around
you got tired of the same old, same old so you started to get honest and that was the beginning of the end of me
i got my power by sowing fear and resentment, that kept you busy and left me free to steal you hope and your energy
when you started to face and work on your problems i didn’t stand a chance, so i came down
so now what’s your plan……………………..
i don’t really have one, so i thought i would hang around with you
well, you won’t be hanging, you’ll be walking, and we may find a way to make this work
you can be a resource, a reminder that left to my own devices i get to carry you around
you only have the power to help and to heal, if you agree to that you can stay, otherwise the door is over there
okay, it wasn’t that much fun being a burden anyway
shake on it…………………………………………………………………………..
i know you’re back feels better
yeah, yeah………………………have a banana
