Monkeyland

I shake my head and shiver
They smile and they stab my back
As they shake my hand
Send out an S.O.S. please. Come quickly,
I'm marooned in monkeyland.

Is there anyone there who understands me, anyone at all?

I'm idly staring at the sky
Did anybody hear me sigh
A million stars are a moving sight
To all you out there hearing me tonight

It's just a trick of the light, yeah it's just a trick of the light.
I have to know what is real and what is illusion
Uh, how does it feel beyond this confusion?

Is there anyone there?

Do I dismiss this with a sigh? (Oh yes, you must from time to time)
And let the answers pass me by? (More questions there to bend the mind)
Is my creator a God or a man? (Yes, and yours too)
Does someone somewhere care and understand?

It's just a trick of the light, yeah it's just a trick of the light.
I have to know what is real and what is illusion
(Rest of chorus)

Is there anyone there?
Life's an optical illusion like other optical illusions
Ah, beware (repeat)
