Monkey Paw Lyrics

[Chorus]
I wish I had a monkey paw
I'd put it in my pocket
I'd like to buy some hapiness
But no one seems to stock it

Sometimes I'm a tumbleweed
Sometimes I'm a cactus
I'd like to teach the world to sing
No one wants to practice

[Chorus]

I crawl inside a turtle shell
Where nobody can find me
You can't escape reality
There's no need to remind me

[Chorus]

If I was a Swedish fish
I would swim to Sweden
I love that God-forsaken land
It's the closest thing to Eden

[Chorus]

I'd like to see the whole wide world
I'd like to go to China
I'd meet a pretty woman there
And play with her computer

[Chorus]

Sometimes I'm industrious
Sometimes I am lazy
And sometimes I sing campfire songs
It drives the ladies crazy

[Chorus]
