Monsoon
Bb F
Come soon
Don't wanna piss on your parade
I'm here to make money and get laid
Yeah I'm a star but I'll fade
If you ain't stickin' your knives in me
You will be eventually
To all you sharons and michelles
With all your tales to sell
Save your meat money well
I'm glad that spending a night with me
Guaranteed you celebrity.
And I can't talk in a crowd
When I'm alone I'm too loud
You've done your daddy's proud
Thank you for keeping me company
You've all been so nice to me
{Chorus}

Oh lord I feel
F
Nothing

I've smoked too many cigarettes
I've had more blondes than brunettes
I'm not expecting your sympathy
But it's all been too much for me
{Chorus}

So put your hands across the water
Bb
Oh mushroom
C
Monsoon
