Mister Can I Ask (LIVE) Lyrics

Say mister can I ask about your monkey

And how you keep them creases in his slacks

And how you keep them pennies in his loafers

There's just so many questions left to ask

Like where you got that ring around your pinky

And how you ever keep them teeth so white

And mister won't you tell me bout that peacock

Struttin there so pretty by your side

Say mister can I ask about Delilah

And how she got that medicated smile

I wonder is she seeing deeper meanings

Through the shining windows of those eyes

Say mister can I ask about your sadnesss

And how you keep that melancholy down

Cause all my songs that start out bright

Seem to fade to darkest night

Mister can I ask you what you've found

Say mister can I ask about your monkey

But there's just so many questions left to ask
