Let The Monkey Drive - Sparks

We’re driving north on Highway 1

Toward Santa Barbara, lots of sun

Pacific Ocean on our left hand side

Tough Sata Barbara’s on our mind, our love can’t wait till after nine

So she says,'Can't we let the monkey drive?'

Let the monkey drive, we can have our fun

As we hop in back, out on Highway 1

Let him take the wheel,'neath the setting sun

Let the monkey drive, out on Highway 1

He’s passing cars and passing trucks

And swigs some coffee from Starbucks

And in the backseat everything is fine

He never pries in our affairs

He never listens, never stares

And we three are enjoying our long ride

Let the monkey drive, we can have our fun

As we hop in back, out on Highway 1

Let him take the wheel,'neath the setting sun

Let the monkey drive, out on Highway 1

Let the monkey drive, and it’s only fair

It’s the monkey’s car and he hates to share

Let him chauffeur us, while we have our fun

Keep our love alive on Highway 1

With obscene gestures, learned from me He works off some hostility

Toward drivers who might cut him off or slide

I think his license has expired, he seems to be a little wired

He has some trouble staying on our side

But you and me are doing fine

We couldn’t wait till after nine

Impossible, our love is way too strong

He hits the brakes a couple times, but everything is superfine

I’m glad the monkey asked to come along

Let the monkey drive, and it’s only fair

It’s the monkey’s car and he hates to share

Let him chauffeur us, while we have our fun

Keep our love alive, out on Highway 1

Let the monkey drive, we can have our fun

As we hop in back, out on Highway 1

Let him take the wheel,'neath the setting sun

Let the monkey drive, out on Highway 1

Let the monkey drive, we can have our fun

As we hop in back, out on Highway 1

Let him take the wheel,'neath the setting sun

Let the monkey drive, out on Highway 1

Let the monkey drive, and it’s only fair

It’s the monkey’s car and he hates to share

Let him chauffeur us, while we have our fun

Keep our love alive, out on Highway 1
