Hit the strip on a Friday night
Now it's hard time in the pen
Paints self portraits in the dark
He's just a two steppin' monkey
He thanks psychology for paying
And Mr. Maxwell's got his tie too tight
Found some time to kill, thrills were hard to find
To give than he ever wanted
But that construction site's got less
The rent was paid again too late this week
To see him dressing up at night
Walked inside and shot the clerk
To give than he ever wanted
To give than he ever wanted
And I'm just a two steppin' monkey too
Parked his truck outside the convenience store
A two steppin' monkey's all he'll ever be
He's just a two steppin' monkey
Plays his Mozart loud, cuts the coupons out
So let's put him in the zoo with you and me
He's just a two steppin' monkey
He's got his coffee in the morning
A two steppin' monkey's all he'll ever be
Billy Cambell revved his engine up
And I'm just a two steppin' monkey too
A two steppin’ monkey's all he'll ever be
But that jail cell's got less
But that pension plan's got less
And I'm just a two steppin' monkey too
So let's put him in the zoo with you and me
Left his children at the old folks home
Thought it might change the way his girlfriend felt
He's got his cigarettes and his amphetamines
