We will teach you how to think a clean way
 There'll be no more dirty looks
 And no more dirty books
 Now for your own good we will take the choice away
 There is a limit in the state of Mental Hygiene
 To the difference of opinion we can allow, oh yeah
 Now we must close an open mind
 If it's open to a different kind
 Well, how can you hurt us if we:

 Clean up in the Monkey House tonight
 Oh yeah, you're gonna be alright
 We clean up in the Monkey House, house tonight

 Now we can make or break your mind
 With Mental Hygiene
 And you will see things in the way we think you should
 Oh yeah
 In the quiet of the night
 The first cut is the deepest in the fight
 How can you blame us if we:

 Clean up in the Monkey House tonight
 Oh yeah, you're gonna be alright
 We clean up in the Monkey House
 We're gonna take you
 We're gonna wash you whiter than white
 In the Monkey House
 Oh yeah!

 Woh ooh ooh ooh woh ooh ooh woh
 In the quiet of the night
 You can hear your own heart beating
 In the quiet of the night
 We'll take your breath away
 Now you're gonna listen to the things we say
 We gotta:

 Clean up in the Monkey House tonight
 Oh yeah, you're gonna be alright
 We clean up in the Monkey House
 We're gonna take you
 We're gonna wash you whiter than white
 In the Monkey House tonight
 ha ha ha ha ha ha yeah!
 We clean up in the Monkey House
