I stand in a wide flat land No shadow or shade of a doubt Where the megaphone man Met the girl with her hand that's Covering most of her mouth Fall in love with a bright idea And the way a world is revealed to you Fat man and dancing girl And most of the show is concealed from view
Monkey in the middle Keeps singing that tune I don't want to hear it Get rid of it soon MC on the stage tonight Is a man named Billy Purl He's 'The International Fun Boy' And he knows the worth of beautiful girl
Stand on the tightrope Never dreamed I would fall, fall
Monkey in the middle
Keeps doing that trick It's making me nervous Get rid of it quick
I stand in a wide flat land No shadow or shade of a doubt Where the megaphone man Met the girl with her hand That's covering most of her mouth Does she tell the truth Does she hide the lie Does she say it so no one can know
Fat man and the dancing girl And it's all part of the show, you know
Stand on the tightrope Never dreamed I could fall, fall
Monkey in the middle Keeps singing that tune
I don't want to hear it Get rid of it soon Monkey in the middle
Keeps doing that trick It's making me nervous Get rid of it quick
