[Verse 1: Dez Fafara]
Cover me when I run
Cover me through the fire
[Pre-Chorus: Ozzy Osbourne with Dez Fafara]
Something knocked me out the trees
Now I'm on my knees
Cover me
Die in peace
Hey!
[Chorus: Ozzy Osbourne with Dez Fafara]
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're gonna
Shock the monkey
Hey, hey!
[Verse 2: Dez Fafara]
Fox the fox
Rat on the rats
You can ape the ape (Shock!)
I know about that
[Pre-Chorus: Ozzy Osbourne with Dez Fafara]
There is one thing you must be sure of
I can't take any more
Dying
Don't you monkey with the monkey
Hey!
[Chorus: Ozzy Osbourne with Dez Fafara]
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're gonna
Shock the monkey
Hey, hey!
Shock the monkey
Hey!
[Bridge: Ozzy Osbourne with Dez Fafara]
Monkey!
Wheels keep turning
Monkey!
Something's burning
Monkey!
Don't like it, but I guess I'm learning
Shock! Shock! Shock!
Watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
[Verse 3: Ozzy Osbourne and Dez Fafara]
Cover me when I sleep
Cover me when I breathe
[Pre-Chorus: Ozzy Osbourne with Dez Fafara]
You throw your pearls before the swine
Make the monkey blind
Cover me
Die in peace
[Outro: Ozzy Osbourne with Dez Fafara]
Hey!
Monkey!
Too much at stake
Monkey!
Ground beneath me shake
Monkey!
And the news is breaking
Shock! Shock! Shock! Shock!
