Proof the Editors of Rolling Stone Were Actually Stoned: The 410th Greatest Song of All Time

 

"Monkey Gone to Heaven" by the Pixies is NOT a great song.

Behold:

• Its melody is almost nonexistent.
• Its lyric is, as confessed by its composer, Black Francis, lacking coherent meaning.
• It never made the charts.
• The phrase "monkey gone to heaven" never even appears in the song.

The phrase that DOES get repeated and repeated and repeated is "This monkey's gone to heaven."

After a while, it even stops sounding like that's what they're saying...

This monkey's gone to heaven

This money's long too leavened

This muck keeps bongs in head bed

Thick mud seeps strong to deadheads
