Monty Got A Raw Deal

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

So just let go

Just let go

I saw the ocean meet them

I saw you buried in the sand

A friend was there to hold your hand

So 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 their sympathy (Waste your breath)

Don't you waste your breath (Waste your breath)

For the silver screen

But 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

He is laying low

Just let go

Just let go

You don't owe me anything

You don't want their sympathy (Waste your breath)

Don't you waste your breath (Waste your breath)

Monty, this seems strange to me
