He Who Wears The Crown

Monkey Paw ((No) Back to You) is a song we came up with on the spot in the basement of the Penthouse Sweets' St. Mary's Court compound in Chicago, circa 2011 (?).  Lou Hallwas, Eric Chial, Andy Hansen and Andy Matzdorf made it up with off the cuff lyrical content from Eric, based on a piano part from Lou.  Eric Quinlan may have been involved as well.
