PART MAN, PART MONKEY – V1 | uncirculating | |
PART MAN, PART MONKEY – V2a | 4:26 | HD |
PART MAN, PART MONKEY – V2b | 4:31 | TRACKS / TRACKS: 18 / 1992 b-side |
Note: Written in 1986 and first recorded during the 1987 Tunnel Of Love sessions, then performed live regularly during the 1988 Tunnel Of Love Express Tour. Bruce re-recorded the song during the Human Touch sessions, and that version was released as a 1992 b-side, and then later on Tracks. This studio version dates from January 1990 at Soundworks West, Los Angeles. Springsteen handles guitar, bass, and vocals, and his two-man backing band is David Sancious (keyboards) and Omar Hakim (drums). V2a and V2b are extremely similar and may in fact be identical mixes.
Studio Sessions: Tunnel Of Love
Part Man, Part Monkey |
They prosecuted some poor sucker in these United States
For teaching that man descended from the apes
They coulda settled that case without a fuss or fight
If they'd seen me chasing you, sugar, through the jungle last night
They'da called in that jury and a one two three, said
Part man, part monkey, definitely
Well the church bell rings from the corner steeple
Man in a monkey suit swears he'll do no evil
Offers his lover's prayer but his soul lies
Dark and drifting and unsatisfied
Well hey bartender tell me what do you see
Part man, part monkey, looks like to me
Well the night is dark, the moon is full
The flowers of romance exert their pull
We talk awhile, my fingers slip
I'm hard and crackling like a whip
Well did God make man in a breath of holy fire
Or did he crawl on up out of the muck and mire
Well the man on the street believes what the bible tells him so
But you can ask me, mister, because I know
Tell them soul sucking preachers to come on down and see
Part man, part monkey, baby that's me
