Martin (live) - Monkey Swallows the Universe - Video
PUBLISHED:  Dec 09, 2008
DESCRIPTION:
It all began in Spring when he was sat in that chair looking so old and distant and half dead
And he began to think of all the books he hadnt read and all the memories lost and thats when he said
Oh baby dont you look at me no more
Im lazy untalented and poor
I cant give you everything that you ask for
Why dont you go go go?

She said Howm I gonna go when youre sitting on my coat?
Looks like I will have to stay til youre on your feet again
Baby youre just the same as me, I feel that way from time to time,
But you will be fine

He didnt hear her words, he didnt see her face he was mired in his heartache
He could only think of all the drugs and drink
And what he couldve been and what his life could mean
Oh baby whym I so disappointing?
What happened to me life being promising?
I cant give you everything that you ask for
Why dont you go go go?

She said Howm I gonna leave when youre crying on my sleeve?
Looks like I will have to stay at least until the washings dry
Baby youre just the same as me, I feel that way once in a while,
But everythingll be alright.

This time he heard but he misunderstood
He took the wrong wrong wrong way out of the wood
He began to rise, he looked in her eyes and said
Oh baby arent you trying to help me?
Is it too much to ask for your sympathy?
Didnt I give you all the love that you asked for?
And now youre gonna go?

She said Wherem I gonna go when youre the only home I know?
Looks like I will have to stay at least until the taps run dry
Maybe youre not the same as me but I still think I could make you smile
Youll see, you will be fine, yeah well be fine.
