lyrics

Dance monkey dance,
And I'll buy you another beer,
Dance monkey dance,
Keeping me grinning from ear to ear,

A young poet in his basement,
Writes of hardship and war,
When he's older he's told to cheer up,
And not to write about those things any more,

A young girl in her summer dress,
Dreams of dancing and being a star,
Pretty soon all her dancing,
Will be done on a table in a bar,

An actor on a small stage,
Pours his soul into the part,
Forced to live like a poor man,
He gives it all up for his art.
