Monty Got a Raw Deal - R.E.M.
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
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
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
Said hold your tongue
hold your tongue
You don't owe me anything
You don't want this sympathy
waste your breath
Don't you waste your breath
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
Just let go
You don't owe me anything
You don't want this sympathy
waste your breath
Don't you waste your breath
waste your breath
Monty this seems strange to me
