Laurie Anderson Monkey's paw Lyrics:
Well I stopped in at the Body Shop Said to the
guy: I want stereo FM installed in my teeth And
take this mole off my back and put it on my cheek.
And uh...while I'm here, why don't you give me
some of those high-heeled feet? And he said:
Listen there's no guarantee Nature's got rules and
Nature's got laws but listen look out for the
monkey's paw And I said: Whaaat? He said: The gift
of life it's a twist of fate It's a roll of the
die It's a free lunch A free ride But Nature's got
rules and Nature's got laws And if you cross her
look out! It's the monkey's paw It's sayin: Haw
haw! It's saying Gimme five! It's sayin: Bye bye!
I know a man he lost his head He said: The way I
feel I'd be better off dead. He said: I got
everything I ever wanted Now I can't give it up

It's a trap, just my luck! The gift of life it's a
leap of faith It's a roll of the die It's a free
lunch A free ride The gift of life it's a shot in
the dark It's the call of the wild It's the big
wheel The big ride But Nature's got rules and
Nature' s got laws And if you cross her look out!
It's the monkey's paw You better Stop! Look
around! Listen! You- could- be- an- oca- rina-
salesman- going- from- door- to- door. Or- would-
you- like- to- swing- on- a- star- and- carry-
moon- beams- home? Or- next- time- around- you-
could- be- a- small- bug- Or- would- you- like-
to- be- a- fish? The gift of life it's a twist of
fate It's a roll of the die it's a free lunch A
free ride The gift of life it's a shot in the dark
It's the call of the wild It's the big wheel The
big ride But Nature's got rules and Nature's got
laws And if you cross her look out! It's the
monkey's paw It's singin': Gimme Five! It's
singin': Bye Bye!
