This is a song about letting a monkey drive up Highway 1 from Santa Barbara.
You can talk about the interplay between the rock-opera chorus and the silent movie "ooh, something's going to happen" violin and piano. I could talk about creativity and detail of the lyrics. But the important thing is they've managed to make a song about getting a monkey to drive up Highway 1 and turn it into a tasteful, dry joke.
You've got to respect talent that can do that.
