Monkey Wrench lyrics

What have we done with innocence

It disappeared with time

It never made much sense

Adolescent resident

Wasting another night on planning my revenge

One in ten

One in ten

One in ten

Don't wanna be your monkey wrench

One more indecent accident

I'd rather leave than suffer this

I'll never be your monkey wrench

All this time to make amends

What do you do when all your enemies are friends

Now and then I'll try to bend

Under pressure

Wind up snapping in the end

One in ten

One in ten

One in ten

Don't wanna be your monkey wrench

One more indecent accident

I'd rather leave than suffer this

I'll never be your monkey wrench

Temper

Temper

Temper

One last thing before I quit

I never wanted any more than I could fit into my head

I still remember every single word you said

And all the shit that somehow came along with it

Still there's one thing that comforts me

Since I was always caged and now I'm free

Don't wanna be your monkey wrench

One more indecent accident

I'd rather leave than suffer this

I'll never be your monkey wrench

Don't wanna be your monkey wrench

Fall in, fall out
