Mr. Monk has a problem; He can't stop cleaning things- He's afraid of germs and diseases- And all the trouble they bring- But Monk can see what others can't- His mind is sharp as a knife- But the hindrance of his mental state- Affects his professional life- Mr. Monk is a detective- His wife died in a case- The loss has caused him to go nutty- And he was unable to save face- Now he works as an investigator- But solves crimes as he goes- His skills are extraordinary- But his craziness brings him woes- He's become obsessive-compulsive- He can't just let things stay- He washes his hands five or six times- He cleans his house ten times a day- Yet through this all, he's one of the best- And everyone can say- That though Monk has his problems- He always saves the day.
