Story behind the song

Sometimes you just gotta know when to keep your cool, your mouth shut, and let the wind die down.

Lyrics

"THREE MONKEYS"

I can see your lips moving but I ain't hearing a word
Girl I know just what you're doing 
You'll keep on throwing darts 'till you hit a nerve

Tonight I'm gonna be that monkey
No evil he hears
So baby turn out the light
Call it a night
And come on over here

Hal-le-lu-iah you are fading I'm going partially blind
Girl the way that you're behaving
It sure makes sense out of sight out of mind

Tonight I'm gonna be that monkey
No evil he sees
Why don't you turn out the light
Let's call it a night, and
Let's kick up the sheets

(bridge)
Girl I don't know how you do it good Lord all mighty
You defy every law known to man…. I swear
You keep ragging on me for hours on end
And you never you never come up for air

I got nothing to say I think it's perfectly clear
It always blows up in my face
Cause the words I say aren't the words you hear

Well tonight I'll be that monkey
No evil he speaks
Why don't you turn out the light
Let's call it a night and
Let's make our peace

I gotta hand it to those monkeys they have the right idea
So baby turn out the light call it a night
And come on over here
Turn out the light
Call it a night
And come on over here
