LEFT HAND DRIVE: Lyrics

Catchey Monkey, written by Chris Carr

You talk about them, I talk about us
You talk about yourself too much
You scream revolution at the bottom of your glass
But you got to get something that’s fit to last

So it’s..
Slowly, slowly catchey the monkey

Because you've got long hair and your boots are worn
You been to university and your clothes are torn
You got high ideals and a noble mind
But the working man has got food to find

So it’s..
Slowly, slowly catchey the monkey

You say it’s all for one and all for nothing
While your family money keeps you away from the bottom
A hard days work, do you know what that’s worth?
A minimum wage in a maximum earth?

I wonder why I bother to say all this
Too early?
You look at me with your eyebrows low
And you say, “What difference to me, myself and I?”
I guess the homeless child will know

That it’s..
Slowly, slowly catchey the monkey

You got time to think
You got time to drink
You got time to realise
You’re the same as them, you are run of the mill
You are institutionalised

Slowly, slowly catchey the monkey
