Talking Monkeys

(album: This And That - 2014)

So foolish boy with your big aspirations,
No second best you've got good in your heart,
Just play it cool,
Just play it cool,
No talking monkeys, be smart

Get suited and booted like an older man, I've even wrote down my retirement plan,
A wife and two boys called Alfie and Riley, a house in Epping where we can live nicely,
Got a job where I sell stocks, I got to Selfridges to buy new socks,
Candlelit dinner 'cos I won rooftops, pay the babysitter make her stop the clocks
Now I'm not saying that you can't be crazy but who wouldn't want to live like this?

So foolish boy with your big aspirations,
No second best you've got good in your heart,
Just play it cool,
Just play it cool,
No talking monkeys, be smart

(I've come)
I've come this far to know that, there's only one person in this world,
In my eyes, I've tried to hid these feelings but I'm feeling silly billing
And I'm feeling it trapped inside

So foolish boy with your big aspirations,
No second best you've got good in your heart,
Just play it cool,
Just play it cool,
No talking, no talking, no talking monkeys,

So foolish boy with your big aspirations,
No second best you've got good in your heart,
Just play it cool,
Just play it cool,
No talking monkeys, be smart

So foolish boy with your big aspirations,
No second best you've got good in your heart,
Just play it cool,
Just play it cool,
No talking monkeys, be smart
