He had a song previously called Shock The Monkey too. Hands up who knows what that was about
Clue - it wasn't about monkeys
What "SLEDGEHAMMER" means on PGrabriel's song?

In fact I think the last scene of the video was supposed to be gallgher smashing PGs head with a sledgehammer but Mtv forced them to change it

Ohhh yeah, love that song!Dave Spiers wrote:Believe me, it's definitely "f**ker" - He had a song previously called Shock The Monkey too. Hands up who knows what that was about
My wife is mad now, since she was thinking the song phrase was "SpaceCowboy" or something VERY diferent from "SLEDGEHAMMER"
Now she hates the song! 
Worst, the DVD we got, on the song, besides the "penis-showcase" moves he does, he starts to walk like a LADY, WHAT HE HECK!?!?!?!?
Anyway, I still love the song, just not going to sing out loud in a crowd...
Is like a friend-of-a-friend, that didn't know what the song "Its raining men" was all about, and used to sing out loud. Once we explained to him, he felt like an ass...

Anyone fancy posting the monkey song lyrics so as I can improve them too?Find and replace wrote:You could have a steam train
If you’d just lay down your tracks
You could have an aeroplane flying
If you bring your blue sky back
All you do is call me
I’ll be anything you need
You could have a big dipper
Going up and down, all around the bends
You could have a bumper car, bumping
This amusement never ends
I want to be your snatchhammer
Why don’t you call my name
Oh let me be your snatchhammer
This will be my testimony
Show me round your fruitcage
’cos I will be your honey bee
Open up your fruitcage
Where the fruit is as sweet as can be
I want to be your snatchhammer
Why don’t you call my name
You’d better call the snatchhammer
Put your mind at rest
I’m going to be-the snatchhammer
This can be my testimony
I’m your snatchhammer
Let there be no doubt about it
Snatch snatch snatchhammer
I’ve kicked the habit
Shed my skin
This is the new stuff
I go dancing in, we go dancing in
Oh won’t you show for me
And I will show for you
Show for me, I will show for you
Yea, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I do mean you
Only you
You’ve been coming through
Going to build that power
Build, build up that power, hey
I’ve been feeding the rhythm
I’ve been feeding the rhythm
Going to feel that power, build in you
Come on, come on, help me do
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you
I’ve been feeding the rhythm
I’ve been feeding the rhythm
It’s what we’re doing, doing
All day and night

oops misread it
bleary morning vision
it was PG's (Peter Gabriel's) head -- makes much more sense than a pig's head
Big Time lyrics pretty much settle the penile obsession
'and the bulge in my big big big big big big big'
PETER GABRIEL LYRICS
"Big Time"
suc cess
I'm on my way, I'm making it
I've giot to make it show, yeah
so much larger than life
I'M going to watch it growing
the place where I come from is a small town
they think so small
they use small words
-but not me
I'm smarter than that
I worked it out
I've been stretching my mouth
to let those big words come right out
I've had enough, I'm getting out
to the city, the big big city
I'll be a big noise with all the big boys
there's so much stuff I will own
and I will pray to a big god
as I kneel in the big church
big time
I'm on my way-I'm making it
big time big time
I've got to make it show yeah
big time big time
so much larger than life
big time
I'm going to watch it growing
big time
my parties all have big names
and I greet them with the widest smile
tell them how my life is one big adventure
and always they're amazed
when I show them round my house, to my bed
I had it made like a mountain range
with a snow-white pillow for my big fat head
and my heaven will be a big heaven
and I will walk through the front door
big time
I'm on my way-I'm making it
big time big time
I've got to make it show-yeah
big time big time
so much larger than life
I'm going to watch it growing
big time big time
my car is getting bigger
big time
my house is getting bigger
big time
my eyes are getting bigger
big time
and my mouth
big time
my belly is getting bigger
big time
and my bank account
big time
look at my circumstance
big time
and the bulge in my big big big big big big big

let's go
one man at the window
one girl at the bar
saw that look of recognition
when they know just who you are
i seen you on the tv
i seen you on that show
you make the people crazy
and then you let them go
before the show we calm them
we sympathise, we care
and the hostile folk we keep apart
'til the red light says 'on air'
did you see our leather lovers
all tied up to the chair
did you catch those child molesters
no one else goes there
what a show, the barry williams show
what a show,
dysfunctional excess
is all it took for my success
the greater pain that they endure
the more you know the show will scored
it's showtime
got the reputation of a surgeon
'cos they cannot feel the cut
it looks so very simple
but it really is an art
they call our studio 'the hospital'
making money from the sick
we let people be themselves
there is no other trick
'my lover stole my girlfriend'
'i keep beating up my ex'
'i want to kill my neighbour'
'my daughter's selling sex'
'my s/m lover hurt me'
'my girl became a man'
'i love my daughter's rapist
'my life's gone down the pan'
what a show, the barry williams show
the barry williams show
dysfunctional excess
is all it took for my success
and when the punches start to fly
the ratings always read so high
it's showtime
'that girl has got no scruples'
not a wrinkle on her face
you would not believe the plot she conceived
so they'd let her take my place
well, no man is an island
no man is a sea
but this display of emotion
is all but drowning me
what a show, oh what a show
on my show, the barry williams show
it's my show
what a show
dysfunctional excess
is all it took for my success
the best tv you've ever seen
where people say the things that they really mean
i hear my name, i hear them roar
for the one more time i take the floor
just one more barry williams show
we're gonna take you where you want to go
it's showtime
come on down
come on down

Shock the Monkey for Nuffink
Cover me, when I run
Cover me - through the fire
Something knocked me out the trees and now I’m on my knees
Darling, don’t you monkey with the monkey
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don’t you know you’ve got to shock the monkey tonight
Fox the fox
Rattle the rat
You can ape the ape
I know about that
There is one thing you must be sure of, I can’t take anymore
Darling, don’t you monkey with the monkey
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don’t you know you’ve got to shock the monkey
There’s more but frankly i can’t be arsed and I’ve proved my point
Deconstructing the first verse is clear that it’s about the necessity of using a condom while the second verse probably has something to do with bestiality.
Now........who remembers No Self Control?
sorry......i gotta go..the boss has just turned up
