(Better duck because someone might have you on their monkey wrench list.)

BAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!


I told you to duck


Next time they may use a truck


Sure some fool got you on their list


Life might have you on its monkey wrench list


As soon as everything is going real good


Here's comes the monkey wrench to mess up your good mood


Enjoy your feel good moments


Because they may only last moments


Then in comes some monkey with his wrench


Knocking you back on the bench


Baltimore Ravens Line backer Ray Lewis


Almost didn't have a choice


The monkey wrench knocked him almost under the jail


He was on top up the world


Until the world fell on top of him


It happened at the blink of an eye


Knocked the famous line backer right out of the sky


Had him wondering how and why


No one is exempt


From the monkey wrench attempt


Then the monkey might turn into a gorilla


Then things really will become an action thriller


The thriller in Manilla


With the big gorilla


The gorilla bar


Will really knock you far


Here is your shield


Unless you've lost your will


And want to yield


Fight negativity positively


And positively fight negativity


At least when the jungle animals come


You still might succumb


However your look back


At better times


Will help you to survive the attack


Remembering the good times


Helps when you get hit with the bad times


And if your strength is in the real strong copeing zone


The monkey and the big ape might leave you alone


They might throw their weapons at a weaker victim


To make him the victim


I got hit by the gorilla bar this week


But I'm not weak


I grabbed the gorilla's bar right out of the air


Before it even got near


No monkey business here


I positively


Fight negativity

The Wholly Book of Genesis by Jay Dubya
