VERSE 1
G C G
Trash and vaudeville
G C G
Tight dresses and painted faces
G C G
It's time to free the lions
G C G
From the circus cages
Jaded baby
Come whisper in my ear
Better come closer 'cause
The music is loud here
PD-C HORUS
C G D
I'm the monkey that you've always been afraid of
C G D
I'm the spirit that haunts your dreams
C G
Deep inside
D C D
Don't you have a little bit of sympathy
CHORUS
Don't you want to
G
Give me some affection
D C
Why is it so hard
VERSE 2
Don't you get tired
Same smilin' faces
Don't you get a little bit lonely
Hiding in crowded places
Don't trust the stranger
You should know better
But this heart of darkness
Can be your shelter
PD-C HORUS
I ain't rich enough I really don't belong here
I don't want to meet your mommy and daddy
I ain't good lookin' but you get used to it like I did
CHORUS
Don't you want to
Give me some affection
Why is it so hard
