Monty Got A Raw Deal

Interprete: REM
Disco: Automatic for the People

Letra de la canción:

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, ma, 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, 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 (waste your breath)

Monty this seems strange to me
