All the monkeys in the tree
Said she's not the girl for me
No she's not the girl for me
She said you're stupid and you
Don't know shit about love
There she goes
Oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo
She's runnin' away
Boy, your girl ain't ever coming back
Didn't we tell you that her heart was black
I know you told me but I
Didn't wanna believe it
I thought I could achieve it, no doubt
But after all those years, look what she did
She turned her back on me when I was just a kid
We were so in love at the age of seventeen
Who knew you could be so mean?
All the monkeys in the tree
Knew I was so fucking naive
I was so fucking naive
She said you're stupid and you
Don't know shit about love
There she goes
Oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo
She's runnin' away
Boy, you'll find another girl, don't go searching the whole world
She'll be there just when you let go
Well I don't care too much for searchin'
Maybe love just takes some workin'
Guess I'll have to try
But after all those years, look what she did
She turned her back on me when I was just a kid
We were so in love at the age of seventeen
Who knew you could be so mean?
All the monkeys in the tree
Said she's not the girl for me
No she's not the girl for me
She said you're stupid and you
Don't know shit about love
Our good buddies, Sledding With Tigers, have created one of the best albums ever. You should listen to it a million times, and then listen to it again. KIDS.
The L.A. trio stand out with their fresh and forceful blend of post-punk, retro girl group, and reverb-heavy psychedelic bubblegum. Bandcamp Album of the Day Oct 20, 2017
