Smalltown Poets - Monkey's Paw Lyrics

Send "Monkey's Paw" ringtone to your cell

I held the monkey's paw and put my wishes into play

To know the will of god to show a motive for delay

I'm holding on to find myself just one more wish

I found a pot of gold or something shining anyway

And caught in my reflection a conviction held at bay

I crafted a cross to adorn my neck and finally earned my due respect

And then a jewel encrusted crown to complement my priestly gown

Just big enough to weigh me down

And bring this temple to the ground

From inside out without a sound

I found a pot of gold today

I held the monkey's paw

I held the monkey's paw

I held the monkey's paw

I held the monkey's paw today and put my wishes into play

Thanked heaven for the trophies but i still had hell to pay

So i brought my spoils to the altar's edge heard you say obey instead

For all of my labors and best laid plans i'd only earned a reprimand

Forevermore to understand

That dreams come true can kill a man

If never graced by sovereign hands

I held the monkey's paw
