[Verse 1]
DTiger and a monkey went to Gwar
The Amonkey rode in on a labraDdor
The B7tiger came on roller skates
ESkids and fancy figure eights
AJuggling a dozen plates or Dmore
[Verse 2]
DStrutting cocky to the n'th deGgree
AMonkey brought his field artilleDry
B7Look at what the tiger brought
Some Eante-bellum cannon shot
AEngraved with Louisiana filiDgree
[Chorus]
GRound and round and round again we F#go
GRound and round and Around again you Dknow
GYou're sweet as a buttercup
F#With the gold side up
Don't Aever think of leaving till you go
[Verse 3]
DBlackbird sitting on a daisy Gchain
Says Amaybe you should come out of the Drain
B7Why don't you just postpone your war
EClothe your hungry, feed your poor
ABefore you take your sword up once aDgain

Well Dnow I've told you everything I Gknow
But Athat never shut me up beDfore
B7Been dealing down the line
ECrooked decks and loaded dice
AHow far do you think your luck may Dgo?
[Verse 5]
DCome and kiss me quick oh Molly GDee
AOne for you another one for Dme
B7We'll make love upon the fence
EBarring fatal accidents
AShow how one and one can still make Dthree

EWith the gold side up
ADon't ever think of leaving till you Dgo
