(Tilbrook)

[Intro]
A | A | A | A |
[Chorus x2]
A D
Monkeys dancing on a hot tin tray, a jaded palette with a fat lip
A
I think that we went thataway, we've given ourselves the slip
D
Taking it down yet another peg, tightening our belts and girding our loins
A
So let's make an omelette of golden eggs and you can toss some coins
[Verse 1]
D A
Here's half a chance I must be off
D A
Perhaps I should have gone some time ago
E A E
A long time ago and far away I had a dream and still some pride
C
Along the way my head was turned when the trickle became a tide
[Chorus]
A D
Monkeys dancing on a hot tin tray, a jaded palette with a fat lip
A
I think that we went thataway, we've given ourselves the slip
D
Taking it down yet another peg, tightening our belts and girding our loins
A
So let's make an omelette of golden eggs and you can toss some coins
[Verse 2]
D A
I thought I deserved a little treat
D A
You should see the looks that I get driving this
E A E
It's not like me but I'm lost for words, I know I've deceived you endlessly
C
I tell everyone that we're good friends but the truth is plain for you and me
[Chorus]
A D
Monkeys dancing on a hot tin tray, a jaded palette with a fat lip
A
I think that we went thataway, we've given ourselves the slip
D
Taking it down yet another peg, tightening our belts and girding our loins
A
So let's make an omelette of golden eggs and you can toss some coins
[Bridge]
D
So this is over get the plot?
A
I cannot give what I haven't got
I've got in touch with the inner me
And the inner me says that I'm
C G E
Unhappy and should get shot of you, you
[Chorus]
A D
Monkeys dancing on a hot tin tray, a jaded palette with a fat lip
A
I think that we went thataway, we've given ourselves the slip
D
Taking it down yet another peg, tightening our belts and girding our loins
A
So let's make an omelette of golden eggs and you can toss some coins
[Outro]
