Songtext von The Monkey And The Onion

See the monkey peel the onion See the monkey cry He can feel his tears are flowin' But he don't know why He continues peeling faster 'Til the onion is no more Now at last his cryin's over But all he had is gone Whatever for You and I are always chasing Wild ambitions and far off dreams As we run in all directions Nothing's quite the joy it seems If I tell you that I love you Don't ask how much And don't ask why Have no doubt and ask no questions Just believe it's not a lie Never take my love for granted But never put it to the test Like the monkey and his onion Too much investigation You know the rest You and I are always chasing Wild ambitions and far off dreams As we run in all directions Nothing's quite the joy it seems On that we could be contented With the good things that we've gained But in the end we're empty handed Just because we need the world explained
