Matthew and a Dusky Langur

They do ok without opposable thumbs, it just looks weird.

Like a Monkey in a Zoo (Bonus)

except the bridges, which both begin with "And it could happen to you" and go:
G - - - / D - - - / G - - - / A - - -

I'm chained to the wall

I'm nothing at all

And my eyes look into the sunset 
thinkin' of better things to do,
Like a monkey in a zoo



The days go so slow

I don't have no friends
Except all these people 
who want me to do tricks for them
Like a monkey in a zoo

G - - - / D - - - / G - - - / A - - -


And it could happen to you
You could be in my place

No it wasn't always like this
But I never saw it coming

I'm so alone

But this is my home

And the bars that surround me
 keep me from knowing any better,
Like a monkey in a zoo

Throw me a peanut
Laugh and make jokes
But I've had enough peanuts 
and I'm ready to choke
Like a monkey in a zoo



You come to look at me
You seem so amused
But things would look different 
If you were in my shoes

I know its my fault
But I want out
And when I cry out
 nobody seems to understand

Like a monkey in a zoo



You say I'm cute
You don't know how much that hurts

You don't know how it feels 
to live in your own dirt
Like a monkey in a zoo



G - - - / D - - - / G - - - / A - - -
And it could happen to you
You could be in my place
Don't let yourself slip
Don't keep egg on your face



I used to be happy

I cant remember those days
'Cause I sold my freedom 
for free room and board

Like a monkey in a zoo
