PLACEBO LYRICS - Space Monkey

"Space Monkey"



Space monkey in the place to be,

Riding in a rocket to a planet of sound,

Shooting the moon, playing Dominoes in drag

An increase in population of a hundred percent



Space monkey in the place to be,

With a chemical peel and a picture of Mary

Out on a limb in the carnival of me

Raising the temperature one hundred degrees



We're sown together,

She's born to mesmer

Beside,

Astride her,

I die inside her



Space monkey in the place to be,

A mass of contradiction in a golden frame

Raising the roof in a calamity way

Completely meretricious of a poke in the eye



Space monkey in the place to be,

Talk of the town with a Colombian rock

Out on a limb in the carnival of me

Raising the temperature one hundred degrees



We're sown together,

She's born to mesmer

Beside,

Astride her,

I die inside her.



It's far too sacred,

Don't ever fake it,

And don't, and don't, and don't let me down...



Like you let me down before,

Like you let me down before.



Space monkey in the place to be,

With some free-association and a hole in her head,

Out on a limb in the carnival of me

Raising the temperature one hundred degrees



We're sown together,

She's born to mesmer

Beside,

Astride her,

I die inside her



It's far too sacred,

Don't ever fake it,

And don't, and don't, and don't let me down...



Like you let me down before,

Like you let me down before,

Like you let me down before,

Like you let me down before.
