about

Première sortie de la nouvelle mouture de Yeggmen en quartet, Two Monkeys parle de deux jeunes désabusés en train de contempler leur ville depuis une colline.

lyrics

TWO MONKEYS

We are sitting like two monkeys
way up there on a hill
staring at
our dying town

We’re sitting aside
of a rotting humanity
in our golden mine
with a paper crown

***

We’re exchanging our names
we are switching our ropes
we are crossing our hopes
eternally young

We are alone up there
but we don’t miss any air 
In our little bubble
no more cold


From the soil
we’ll vanish in the void
we both soared into the sky
suspending time


We are sitting like two monkeys
way up there on a hill
staring at
our dying town

We’re just two breathing beings
two stupid little things
too wasted to cross
back the fields


From the soil
we’ll vanish in the void
we both soared into the sky
suspending time

Being lovers
We believe we don’t belong to earth
like one, we soared into the sky
suspending time


WHY SHOULD WE STAY
WHY SHOULD WE STAY
THERE’S NOTHING HERE
(x3)
