Janet: [sung]
I put a monkey on a pedestal
And tried to make that monkey stay
And he did for a time
But he needed to climb
And with other monkeys play
Far away
He left his jacket on the pedestal
Beside his tiny rusty cup
And I havent got the strength
To pick them up
Oh monkey, monkey, monkey
You broke my heart in two
But Ill always save that pedestal
For you
Come my little monkey
Come my little monkey, do
Oh, monkey, monkey, monkey
You broke my heart in two
But Ill always save that pedestal
For you
Come my little monkey
Come my little monkey, do
Wait!
Im Janet Van De Graaff!
I dont need anyone!
What do I care about the love of one man when I am adored by millions!
Do I need to be so gloomy?
No, no, no
I could rule the world
If so I choose
Sigmund Freud sends flowers to me every show
Gertrude Stein she handed me a rose
Im Janet, Janet Van De Graaff
Aint no nail that I cant hammer
Why give up a life of glamour
Life of glamour
Life of glamour
Noooooooo!!
Im an accident waiting to happen
I dont want to show of no more
I dont want to spread mirth no more
Be the greatest on earth no more
I dont wanna
I wanna
I dont wanna
I wanna
I dont
I do
I dont
I do
I dont wanna show off
And I think sure Janet sure Janet
Future is secure Janet
Millions will do just fine
But any future I could ever care to shape
Includes just one two timin cad who drives
Me ape
I put a monkey on a pedestal
And tried to make that monkey stay
And he did for a time
But he needed to climb
And with other monkeys play
Thats the story of a monkey gone astray
I ask
The stars
Above
Is it the monkey or my pedestal
I love
