They say that bearing crosses is a religion in itself
|
But honey the strain I'm under, it's ruining my health
|
When we first met as lovers, we walked together hand in hand
|
But now that bridge of love has shattered, I'm such a lonely man
|
|
I'm not gonna be your monkey,
|
I'm not gonna be your fool
|
I'm not gonna stand round waiting
|
While you're out there trying to be cool
|
At the bitter end.
|
|
Well you listed all my virtues honey, and you charged a real high price
|
Well given this set of circumstances, I don't think that's nice
|
|
I'm not gonna be your monkey, I'm not gonna be your clown
|
I'm not gonna stand round watching as they lower you down
|
In the ground
|
At the bitter end.
|
|
I'm like a knight in shining armour, honey do I detect some rust?
|
I'm moving one step higher, honey tell me, honey tell me, honey you must
|
|
Well I gave you all my confidence, and you gave me back just lies
|
I recognise amongst our best friends, most of them are spies
|
With all this poison in the system, love was murdered from the first
|
And though I practiced eastern logic, I just cannot break the curse
|
|
Well I'm not gonna be your monkey,
|
I'm not gonna dance any jig
|
I'm not gonna stand round waiting,
|
As you're taking your lunch with the pigs
|
At the Bitter End.
