Monkey Wrench

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 want to 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 want to 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

There's still one thing
That comforts me
Since I was always caged
And now I'm free

Don't want to be your monkey wrench
One more indecent accident
I'd rather leave than suffer this
I'll never be your monkey wrench

Don't want to be your monkey wrench
(Fall in, fall out)
Don't want to be your monkey wrench
(Fall in, fall out)

Don't want to be your monkey wrench
(Fall in, fall out)
Don't want to be your monkey wrench
