Dave Matthews Band lyrics : "Shake Me Like A Monkey"

(chorus)
There was a lights out television show
There was amos and andy on the radio

And a man on a hill running round
Don't you know


Saying everybody here got to go
Saying everybody here got to go


There were some
People out in hollywood
The words they had spoken

It was well understood

But three thousand miles

And for everyones good
A man stood singing his song


Dancing around all the tombstones
He said that a man if he's living
Would rather be dead


And he opened the eyes
To the typewriter's lead

And he said, now
It won't be too long


(chorus)
Saying everybody here got to go


(chorus)
Saying everybody here got to go
Saying everybody here got to go


The people, they gathered
From miles all around

Like a sunday in salem
They all could be found


And the lights all went out
With a deafening sound
As the church bells

Rang once again

The curtains were drawn

And the prophets had cried
When somebody screamed
That the joker had lied


The damage was done
And the saints crucified

And the truth will be
Lost til the end


(chorus)
Saying everybody here got to go


(chorus)
Saying everybody here got to go
Saying everybody here got to go

Saying everybody here got to go
