Monkey See, Monkey Do - Zakir

Tell them how to write a song

Don’t expect phenomenon

Copy-paste some words to paper

Get the crowd to sing along

Man, just take a guitar

Reminisce from the heart and just use your own experience

They say that life is what you make it

Feedback until you take it

Problems after problems

Multiplied by all the math

But I can’t recall the symbols that I’ve been dreaming lately

Like strumming songs to Libby on a vintage ukulele

Monkey see, monkey do

I’ve got problems that don’t belong to you

Monkey see, monkey do

I’ve got problems that don’t belong to you

Now allow me to reiterate

The morals you should integrate

It really ain’t so difficult to just be yourself

Without my tongue getting twisted and turned on top

The grass is greener on the other side

Perfection is what they hide

I could use some punctuation, let me take a breath

Thank you for your courtesy

In what I do, now it’s time to sing

Monkey see, monkey do

I’ve got problems that don’t belong to you

Monkey see, monkey do

I’ve got problems that don’t belong to you

I will leave you with advice to pass to your friends

Tell 'em quit being so nosy

Simply so you only worry

About you and yourself

Monkey see, monkey do

I’ve got problems that don’t belong to you

Monkey see, monkey do

I’ve got problems that don’t belong to you
