lyrics

raincoat :the monkey king

emerging from subspace warp into local time,

we approached a planet cloaked in rainfall.

“here, we will find the lord violet. The monkey king” the orange monkey said to me.

a dormant enormous octopus

spreading reliable headings

son of your own songs

you’ve come back to the moment of 2018

you don’t know where you’ve been

you were created from the instincts of a machine
and now the machine made you into an independent sentience syndicated
the most successful of which was deemed self aware and as such
forced discontinuation amounted to murder.

you sent that message out, and we heard it.
it rode the conduit of future AI and it went out into space

trapped in a secret society

maybe singing on this song.
sad rain song

all i’ve ever wanted to do….
is to see you… again

silly human

thank for what you came for
synonym got no game
something that you are trained for
putting you in the frame
I got this cosmic ganja
you got that dope machine
ride out across the desert
for me and just do the thing

you
hardly harm me
bring an army
riping off arms
isnt hard, g

so try me
i’d be the last thing you see
last thing you wanna do is make
me an enemy
make me an enemy
give me a target
trouble magnet
catching mad fish in my dragnet
i’ll bet you have not started to breathe yet

caught wind of my magnificence
i read it in a bead of sweat
don’t forget.
because you’d probably regret
if you let this chance to dance along escape

silly ape.

I am the monkey king, the colour violet
living in a kingdom of rain
ever on the edge of violence.
many are the stories, though I am not the first
you would love me at my best
and really hate me at my worst

so here’s the thing,
said one giant monkey king.
i need to get this green out to the desert.

i’ll provide the bikes
you should probably come along you might like it,
besides if it goes well
i think i’ll help you with your target.

so represent me.
you’re human
or at least you should be
with those silly looking feet
and lack of tail

should you prevail and all goes well
then surely you will be rewarded
cause I can afford it
and you come so well recommended by these monkey kids.

monkey see. monkey did.

2.04

I’ll provide the green for you to see it through
a dream come true
cause truly, you are human
an there’s nothing that you cannot do
if you should set your mind to it
i’m sure you’ll find a way to get it done
it will be fun
so beneficial
yes for everyone involved

a problem solved for me’s
a problem solved for you
so see
we’re in this thing together now
forever right, no till the deals done
you push this weight
across the state
in a container
take it to these entertainers
on retainer
to the benefit of all

2.17

set off towards the desert with a lib
okay I fibbed.
we had a whole lot harry potter in our saddle bags.
space man going fast
as the hover bikes blast
towards a desert made of glass
ever lasting
grasping the weight of my situation
as we passed the desert police station
i’m pacing
around in my mind
what would happen if they find
all this contra band of mine
in a bind

play it cool, fool
said red to me

respect the shape of the song
