Monkey
Fuel Fandango Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

At this time you're on my mind
But I've decided you have to try
You look at me and I don't mind
'Cause I've decided you have to fight

I'm watching you walking down the street
I know your game, I'm gonna play
There's no reason to be afraid
This is the time to play the game

Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do

I've decided you have to try
I know it's always the same fight
You look at me and I don't mind
Now it's your turn to treat me right

You have to try, yes I have to try
You have to fight, yes I have to fight
You have to try, yes I have to try
You have to fight, yes I have to fight

Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do

You have to make it
You have to make it
You have to make it
You have to make it

In every night I think you're blind
The devil's coming, the crowd is running

In every night I think you're blind
The devil's coming, the crowd is running

In every night I think you're blind
The devil's coming, the crowd is running
The crowd is running
The crowd is running
The crowd is running, running

You have to make it
You have to make it
You have to make it
You have to make it

Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do




Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to the song "Monkey" by Fuel Fandango are open to interpretation, but some possible meanings are present in the lyrics. The song seems to be about a relationship where one person is hesitant or unsure about committing, while the other is ready to take the relationship to the next level. The person singing is encouraging the other to try and fight for the relationship, even though they may be scared or uncertain.


The lyrics describe the singer watching the other person walking down the street, and knowing their "game" but still wanting to play. They encourage the other person to try and fight for the relationship, saying "monkey see, monkey do." The phrase is often used to describe someone who imitates others without thinking or following their own path, so in this context, it could mean that the person singing wants the other to follow their lead and take a chance on the relationship.


The chorus repeats the phrase "you have to make it," emphasizing that the relationship is worth fighting for and that the other person should give it a chance. The inclusion of the lines "the devil's coming, the crowd is running" suggests that there may be some external pressures or obstacles to overcome in the relationship, but that it's still possible to succeed if both people work together.
