#76 Takes Issue With Wearing Green

I used to be a good monkey
But nowadays it isn't so
It's 'wear this, do that, stand here'
Wherever I go
*
Today, they've gone too far
Even a monkey has his dignity
I've smoked cigarettes and worn diapers
And thrown my poo as far as the eye can see
*
This outfit is so beneath me
As soon as I looked in the mirror
I freaked out and ran
To cries of, "Bad monkey! bad monkey!"
*
I'm going to keep going I swear
Till I'm far away from Idaho
Where's my pot of gold?
At the end of the proverbial rainbow?

I dash through the city streets
My green coattails flapping in the breeze
I keep my walking stick at the ready
Smacking people in the knees
*
My mind races as my feet do
Jumping cars and fences like a faun
I have to ditch these clothes
On today of all days
*
This bad monkey will NOT
*
Be dressed
*
As a leprechaun!
