Monty, this seems strange to me |
|
The movies had that movie thing |
|
But nonsense has a welcome ring |
|
And heroes don't come easy |
|
Now nonsense isn't new to me |
|
I know my head, I know my feet |
|
But mischief knocked me in the knees |
|
I said, just let go, just let go |
|
I saw the ocean meet the man |
|
I saw you buried in the sand |
|
A friend was there to hold your hand |
|
I said, walk on by |
|
So, I went walking through the street |
|
I saw you strung up in a tree |
|
A woman knelt there said to me |
|
I said, hold your tongue, man, hold your tongue |
|
You don't owe me anything |
|
You don't want this sympathy |
|
Don't you waste your breath |
|
(Don't waste your breath) |
|
For the silver screen |
|
That nonsense doesn't mean a thing |
|
They tried to bust you in a sting |
|
But virtue isn't everything |
|
So, don't waste time |
|
Now, here's a rhyme that you can steal |
|
Put this on your reel to reel, mischief threw a rotten deal |
|
Monty's laying low, man, he is laying low |
|
Just let go, y'all, just let go |
|
You don't owe me anything |
|
You don't want this sympathy |
|
(Waste your breath) |
|
Don't you waste your breath |
|
(Don't waste your breath) |
|
Monty, this seems strange to me |
