The Waterboys - Monument lyrics

(Monument) The man is a monument to himself Oh yeah, listen to him talk The man is a monument to himself Oh yeah, listen to him talk He says: “Tell you ’bout my genius, man It’s as high as the sky is blue Explore my work you’ll understand And come to find I’m a healer too” So Narcissus plays his game A hustle by any other name (Monument) The man is a monument to himself Oh yeah, listen to him talk The man is a monument to himself Oh yeah, listen to him talk He says: “A humble servant of the fates The powers that be tried to pull me down Yet I’m the peer of all the greats Enlightenment follows me around” You who pa** remember this Here spoke the great self-rhapsodist (Monument) The man is a monument to himself Oh yeah, listen to him talk The man is a monument to himself Oh yeah, listen to him talk Loves, loves, loves, loves, loves The sound of his voice Loves, loves, loves, loves, loves The sound of his voice (Monument) The man is a monument to himself Oh yeah, listen to him talk The man is a monument to himself Oh yeah, listen to him talk (Monument) The man is a monument to himself Oh yeah, listen to him talk The man is a monument to himself Oh yeah, listen to him talk Monument
