Lyrics
3 monkeys saw I sitting there of evil three they spoke
and wise men heed their beckoned plea and turn away to hope
so listen to the monkeys talk and live another day
three monkeys saw I sitting there for fools who turn away
first one happy peaceful life till he failed to recognize that
those who spoke around him quote with evilness and lies
he listened to the foolish talk, and negativity,
hatred, malice, slander, half wit impurity
shocked to find his heart was corrupted by the mire
he plugged his ears to hear no more the death engulfed conspire.
Then next wise monkey held his eyes for what one sees to compromise
One must choose evil despise or loose ones life with brandished lies
Found the window to his soul had poured in filth and took control,
So closing out the evil there, prayed that good would take its toll.
The third monkeys wisdom rung the power of life is in the tongue
To pick one up or put them down, can be your chains or be your crown
So hear the third monkeys wisdom tell love life and taste its fruit
And note the words that you expel. You?re words can bring heaven or hell.
three monkeys saw I sitting there,
of evil seeds they said beware
for those who?re caught in devils snare
find their souls in grave despair
and the wise man who heard wisdoms voice
consider good and then make that choice
cut the ties of hate and strife find peace find joy find life.
