lyrics

room to dance

we made our beds
now there’s room to dance
please don’t keep it from me

i thought i never knew
about a blade of grass
i could never put myself inside

the mind of a monkey shot into space
even though more than anyone i
should be able to relate

a sieve-like mind
i will bring the wine
like a hot air balloon
i must be leaving soon

solitary confines
legally blind
and thus is my state of mind

still it means enough to me
i belong in the crook of your knee
come and keep me company
tell me it’s alright

we will wake up the night
going through the ups and downs
sometimes i’m like this is pretty alright
sometimes i’m like fuck my life

though it does seem bleak
with the wind blowing at my beak
it’s the best thing seeing you sleep
sometimes i’m like this is very alright
other times i’m scared for my life

rooted to that place
between dismay and distaste
when in the mind of the monkey
nothing seems out of place

sheltering in place
between dismay and distaste
when in the mind of the monkey
nothing seems out of place

in the mind of the monkey it’s a new day in space
