Lyrics
I love my brine shrimp pals, they are my friends I watch them float around inside their tank But when I came back home from school today My little friends were dead and I was sad The other day they were alive And now they're floating at the top I knew they wouldn't last forever And now they're just a bunch of dead sea monkeys Will my sea monkeys go to heaven? Will my sea monkeys go to hell? Will my sea monkeys go to heaven? Will my sea monkeys go to hell? The other day they were alive And now they're floating at the top I knew they wouldn't live forever And now they're just a bunch of Dead sea monkeys, dead sea monkeys (uh ah oh oh oh) Dead sea monkeys, dead sea monkeys (uh ah oh oh oh) My brine shrimp pals have died a grisly death Why must the things I love just disappear? Is it my fault, did I forget their food? I hope they're in a better place right now Will my sea monkeys go to heaven? Yes! Will my sea monkeys go to hell? No! Will my sea monkeys go to heaven? Yes! Will my sea monkeys go to hell? No! I miss 'em, I miss 'em, me oh my! I miss 'em, I miss 'em, me oh my! I miss 'em, I miss 'em, me oh my! I miss 'em, I miss 'em, me oh my! The other day they were alive And now they're floating at the top I knew they wouldn't live forever And now they're just a bunch of Dead sea monkeys, dead sea monkeys (uh ah oh oh oh) Dead sea monkeys, dead sea monkeys (uh ah oh oh oh) The other day they were alive (Dead sea monkeys) And now they're floating at the top (Dead sea monkeys) I knew they wouldn't live forever (Dead sea monkeys) And now they're just a bunch of Dead sea monkeys, dead sea monkeys (uh ah oh oh oh) Dead sea monkeys, dead sea monkeys (uh ah oh oh oh) I want my monkeys back, give my monkeys back! I want my monkeys back, Jesus Christ I want my monkeys back, give my monkeys back! I want my monkeys back, Jesus Christ I want my monkeys back, give my monkeys back! I want my monkeys back, Jesus Christ I want my monkeys back, gimme my monkeys back! I want my monkeys back, Jesus flippin' Christ! Dead sea monkeys, dead sea monkeys (uh ah oh oh oh) Dead sea monkeys, dead sea monkeys (uh ah oh oh oh) Dead sea monkeys, dead sea monkeys (uh ah oh oh oh) Dead sea monkeys, dead sea monkeys (uh ah oh oh oh) (Telephone rings) Hello?
Trivia
- In December 2005, VH1 asked Neil for permission to use this song as part of their “I Love Toys” special, and offered to pay him handsomely. However, it was cut during editing and never made into the show.
- The person saying “hello” at the end of the song is Neil’s Mom, Nancy
