Patti Smith Group — Space Monkey

Blood on the TV ten o'clock news Souls are invaded heart in a groove Beating and beating so out of time What's the mad matter with the church chimes Here comes a stranger up on Ninth Avenue Leaning green tower indiscreet view Over the cloud over the bridge Sensitive muscle sensitive ridge Of my space monkey sign of the time-time Space monkey so out of line-line Space monkey sort of divine And he's mine mine all mine Pierre Clemente. Snortin' cocaine The sexual streets why it's all so insane Humans are running lavender room Hovering liquid move over moon For my space monkey sign of the time-time Space monkey sort of divine Space monkey so out of line And he's mine mine oh he's mine Stranger comes up to him Hands him an old rusty Polaroid It starts crumbling in his hands He says, oh man, I don't get the picture This is no picture this is just this just a this just a... Just my jack-knife just my jack-knife just my jack-- Rude excavation. Landing site Boy hesitating jack-knife He rips his leg open so out of time Blood and light running It's all like a dream Light of my life he's dressed in flame It's all so predestined it's all such a game For my space monkey sign of the time-time Space monkey sort of divine space monkey So out of line and it's all just space just space There he is up in a tree Oh, I hear him calling down to me Tat banana-shaped object ain't no banana It's a bright yellow UFO and he's coming to get me Here I go up up up up up up up up up Oh, good-bye mama I'll never do dishes again Here I go from my body Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Help
