They make no sounds, they ring no bell Leaving no traces, they got no tales to tell They find no home, they make no love Casting no shadow while balancing the burn Oh, here I come, me and my desire Everyone's got their own monkey on a wire Oh, down below, leader of the choir Is waiting for the next monkey on a wire They keep no fear, no second prize Walking like Jesus with voodoo in their eyes They come in green, they leave in black Holding dead roses with bullets in their backs Oh, here I come, me and my desire Everyones got their own monkey on a wire Oh, down below, wrapped up in the fire Waiting for the next monkey on a wire They make no sound, they ring no bell Walking like Jesus goin' straight on into hell Oh, there you go, you and your desire Everyone's got their own monkey on a wire Oh, down below, leader of the choir Is waiting for the next monkey on a wire Oh, down below, wrapped up in the fire Waiting for the next monkey on a wire Waiting for the next monkey on a wire Waiting for the next monkey on a wire
