Brass Monkey Lyrics

Artist: Beastie Boys
Album: Licensed To Ill

(chorus) Brass Monkey - that funky Monkey
Brass Monkey - junkie
That funky Monkey

Got this dance that's more than real
Drink Brass Monkey - here's how you feel
Put your left leg down - your right leg up
Tilt your head back - let's finish the cup
M.C.A. with the bottle - D. rocks the can
Adrock gets nice with Charlie Chan
We're offered Moet - we don't mind Chivas
Wherever we go with bring the Monkey with us
Adrock drinks three - Mike D. is D.
Double R. foots the bill most definitely
I drink Brass Monkey and I rock well
I got a Castle in Brooklyn - that's where I dwell

(repeat chorus)

Cause I drink it anytime - and anyplace
When it's time to get ill - I pour it on my face
Monkey tastes Def when you pour it on ice
Come on y'all it's time to get nice
Coolin' by the lockers getting kind of funky
Me and the crew - we're drinking Brass Monkey
This girl walked by - she gave me the eye
I reached in the locker - grabbed the Spanish Fly
I put it with the Monkey - mixed it in the cup
Went over to the girl, "Yo baby, what's up?"
I offered her a sip - the girl she gave me lip
It did begin the stuff wore in and now she's on my tip

(repeat chorus)

Step up to the bar - put the girl down
She takes a big gulp and slaps it around
Take a sip - you can do it - you get right to it
We had a case in the place and we went right through it
You got a dry Martini - thinking you're cool
I'll take your place at the bar - I smack you off your stool
I'll down a '40 dog" in a single gulp
And if you got beef you'll get beat to a pulp
Monkey and parties and reelin' and rockin'
Def, def - girls, girls - all y'all jockin'
The song and dance keeping you in a trance
If you don't buy my record I got my advance
I drink it - I think it - I see it - I be it
I love Brass Monkey but I won't give D. it
We got the bottle - you got the cup
Come on everybody let's get ffffff

(repeat chorus)

This is St Louis Cardinals' Ryan Ludwick's lead-in song when he comes to bat! We're like Pavlov's dogs....just knowing that he's going to get a clutch hit, we all stand up and cheer at the sound of the song before they announce his name as the batter! GO CARDS!

I love how most of the comments seem to be by people who've had TOO MUCH Brass Monkey. And NO this song isn't about drugs, it's about a drink that was popular in the 80s.

by Mike on 10/30/2009 10:34pm
Okay, brass monkey is obviously a drink. Let me put it this way, look at the fucking lyrics. "Tilt your head back and finish the cup!". I'm 100% sure that they aren't talking about marijuana. Whoever thinks that is a complete idiot and get a life and do more important things.

by Matt on 3/9/2010 9:15pm
Ok. I mean seriously, what did you thin they were singing about?! One of those toy monkeys that smash two cymbals together? And no, Brass Monkey is not a drug. It is an alcohol drink. Suprises me that the first thing some people think of when they hear brass monkey is drugs.
by Samantha on 3/21/2010 9:13pm

Mix a quarter cup of dark rum, a quarter cup of vodka, and a half a cup of orange juice, drink it, then listen to this song. That's a brass monkey.
by Angie on 10/22/2013 4:16pm

by darkseid on 12/12/2013 8:49am
I don't like the part where he dopes the girl's drink and basically date rapes her. Old Beastie Boys were morons.

by Haileigh. on 3/15/2014 10:02am
This song is amazing, the Beastie Boys are amazing, and the two people before me can be quiet. I know, opinions blah blah, but there's no need to be rude about it.
by Jeff on 9/26/2014 12:42pm
Oh my god I love this dame song....
by G on 12/2/2015 6:17pm
Catchy tune, however on closer inspection.....to some posters here...alcohol is a drug.....AND this song refers to adding 'spanish fly' to a girl's drink in order to get laid....that is date rape.....not cool
