[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
I'm looking for monkey business (Monkey business)
Just playing around
I'm here on monkey business (Monkey business)
And look what I found (Look what I found)
[Verse 1: Neil Tennant]
Everybody, get on board, I'm back in town (Monkey business)
And I'm not leaving 'til the last joint has shut down
People tell me I'm a legend 'round these parts
I start the party and I end up breaking hearts
[Pre-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
Bring me margaritas
Champagne and red wine
We're gonna have a party
Where we all cross the line
[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
I'm looking for monkey business (Monkey business)
Just playing around (Just playing around)
I'm here on monkey business (Monkey business)
And look what I found (Look what I found)
[Verse 2: Neil Tennant]
I'm not dealing with the real world anymore
When they're done, I came back, and I know the score
[Pre-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
Flew in from the city
Just got into town
Checked into a new place
I can't seem to settle down
[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
I'm looking for monkey business (Monkey business)
Just playing around (Just playing around)
I'm here on monkey business (Monkey business)
And look what I found (Look what I found)
[Refrain: Chris Lowe]
I'm here on funky business
Just playing around
I'm here on funky business
Look what I found
[Verse 3: Neil Tennant]
There are diamonds in the sky that shine for me
Gonna pick them one by one, I guarantee
[Refrain: Chris Lowe]
I'm looking for monkey business
Just playing around
I'm here on monkey business
Look what I found, just playing around
[Pre-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
Hanging from the rafters
I'm a chimpanzee
What I do for afters
You just have to wait and see
[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
I'm looking for monkey business (Monkey business)
Just playing around (Look what I found)
[Pre-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
Bring me margaritas
Champagne and red wine
We’re gonna have a party
Where we all cross the line
[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
I'm looking for monkey business (Monkey business)
Just playing around (Look what I found)
I'm here on monkey business (Monkey business)
Look what I found (Look what I found, monkey business)
[Pre-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
Entered by the back door
Straight into the bar
Checking out the dance floor
Well, I like who you are
[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
I'm looking for monkey business (Monkey business)
Just playing around (Monkey business)
I'm looking for monkey business (Monkey business)
Just playing around
I'm here on monkey business (Monkey business)
And look what I found (Look what I found)
[Verse 1: Neil Tennant]
Everybody, get on board, I'm back in town (Monkey business)
And I'm not leaving 'til the last joint has shut down

I'm here on monkey business (Monkey business)
And look what I found (Look what I found)
