"He's lost it"

"He's taken his pants off"

"WILL YOU SHUT UP"

[shelleysuxx]

I just dont understand how he is single, ;)

Why can't Russell stay quiet and let someone else have the attention? This is probably the reason they don't work together any more...

that person has no soul

“Who goes there?”I cry into the darkness,

The only reply that he could muster,

Was “I’m everything you’ll ever need my friend,

I’m Monkey The Funduster.”

And so I smiled, and went to sleep.

[EmphaticallyJack]

I regret you’ll never see his face, For he always walks behind. (he’s taken his pants off) But there’s no need to be afraid, (will you SHUT UP) Everything he does is kind. That he will never feel a hug, Or hear your thanks is such a pity, But no sooner do you know he’s been, Than he’s in another city. Do call out though if you think he’s near, It’s always worth a try, You might just hit the jackpot, And share the same success as I.

[EmphaticallyJack]

He spreads the sediment of satisfaction, With the hairy-backed hands of fate, To put things in a simpler fashion, He puts the mate back in primate. With no knowledge of who or what or why, You innocently inhale, (he’s lost it) The magic mist inside you now, You’ll chuckle without fail. A giddy high will come along, And it might seem to you at random, But happiness and chimpanzees, They always go in tandem.

[EmphaticallyJack]

Monkey The Funduster by Jon Richardson, 24 ½ It starts with a tingle, Way up inside one nostril. An Icarus sneeze that flew too high. What follows is an urge to skip, Or you might just giggle but not know why. Some think it’s just a sugar rush, Others think it’s fairies. From gods to guardian angels though, The reason always varies. Mere posturing I can reveal, For of the truth we can be so much prouder. It’s cheekier you see, and furrier, A simian with magic powder.
