Keep those leaping lizards off my back Right off my back Cos they're blocking off the highway to the sun And it's my sun Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah There's a shining monkey standing in the light Right in the light And he scratches at my window every night Most every night Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah Well I'll tell you what I want now if it's not too much to ask It's the jewel inside the wound inside your soul Well I made my bid for diamonds cos it's what I'm s'posed to do But I think I'm much more comfortable with gold Keep those leaping lizards off my back Right off my back There's a valley in my head that's calling me And it's all green But I haven't earned the beauty and know it's way too good for me And I'll do my best to twist it if I must So I'll take another mission and I'll strafe another town And I'll watch my little valley turn to dust
