Mighty Monkey Lyrics & Chords By Vic Chesnutt

Smell the mighty monkey
Trainer is a junky
And the tightrope walker
Has one foot in the grave

Invited to inspect
What is a train-wreck
You don't even have to check
It's evident, so evident

Dancing bear is full of worms
See the puny pachyderms
Lion tamer wrestles
With ghosts from his past

Invited to inspect
What is a train-wreck
You don't even have to check
It's evident, so evident

Clowns have Herpes and Hepatitis C
The chick who runs the pony ride
We call her Catherine the gross

Invited to inspect
What is a train-wreck
You don't even have to check
It's evident, so evident

Alcoholic acrobats
Emcee smokes crack
Last week the human cannonball
Blew his brains out
