Lyrics
The sky is blue (And that's a fact)
Baby I love you (And that's a fact)
But you treat me so mean (And that's a fact)
You are the King of Queens (And that's a fact)
I don't know why I stick with you, you are the monkey on my back
And that's a fact, Jack
Jill went down the hill and left me standing by myself all alone
(Honey please come back)
When she looked back up at me my heart was full of misery
I knew I had to bring her back home
Water is wet (And that's a fact)
I never get respect (And that's a fact)
I treat you oh so kind (And that's a fact)
You make me lose my mind (And that's a fact)
I don't know why I stick with you, you are the monkey on my back
And that's a fact, Jack
Jill went down the hill and left me standing by myself all alone
(Honey please come back)
When she looked back up at me my heart was full of misery
I knew I had to bring her back home
Ice is cold (And that's a fact)
Baby you got soul (And that's a fact)
Don't have to be so cruel (And that's a fact)
Cuz baby I'm your fool (And that's a fact)
I don't know why I stick with you, you are the monkey on my back
And that's a fact, Jack
