I don't know how the barn burned down
But I blame it on the monkey
He spent the day chasing chickens around
And shooting off fire works
All I know is at five PM I
Smelled the smoke and heard the sirens
I ran outside and in shock I cried
My monkey was on fire
Country fried monkey
Your days were numbered at last
Country fried monkey
The fire had burned up your ass
The monkey ran in a ball of fire
Looking for some water
The fireman came running at me
I'm all right save my freaking monkey
The smell was thick like KFC
With a hint of Chimpanzee
He turned away and he sprayed his hose
And that is how the story goes
Country fried monkey
On fire and running real fast
Country fried monkey
He fell and burned up in the grass
Country fried monkey
Your days were numbered at last
Country fried monkey
The fire had burned up your ass
The fire raged on till 9 PM
Then we ran out of water
Channel 5 and CNN
Accusations questions and reporters
They tried to blame the fire on me
As I pointed at the monkey
The Monkey liked to smoke and drink
That was my final answer
Country fried monkey
Your death will cost me some cash
Country fried monkey
I can't flush you so it's out with the trash
Country fried monkey
On fire and running real fast
Country fried monkey
He fell and burned up in the grass
Country fried monkey
Your death will cost me some cash
Country fried monkey
I can't flush you so it's out with the trash
