Monkey, Sloth, and the Bright-Eyed Girl

[Verse 1] The monkey in the mango tree Stole my hat and laughed at me The sloth just blinked, moved so slow Like it knew something I don’t know [Pre-Chorus] Then you walked in with that grin Bright eyes flashing, let me in Everything in me went awake Like the whole yard started to shake [Chorus] The monkey the sloth and the bright eyed girl The monkey the sloth and the bright eyed girl You turn my whole world upside down You make that old blue sky feel wild now [Verse 2] We left our names on the dusty fence You made a joke, I made amends The monkey swiped a cherry pie The sloth held court with half a sigh [Pre-Chorus] Then you laughed and looked at me Like a spark in a honeybee I was stuck in my own old skin Till your bright eyes pulled me in [Chorus] The monkey the sloth and the bright eyed girl The monkey the sloth and the bright eyed girl You turn my whole world upside down You make that old blue sky feel wild now [Bridge] If I lose my way, stay near Keep that grin, keep it clear Monkey on the fence, sloth in the shade And you, the reason I stayed [Chorus] The monkey the sloth and the bright eyed girl The monkey the sloth and the bright eyed girl You turn my whole world upside down You make that old blue sky feel wild now
