My Beloved Monster

Eels · Live At Town Hall [2006]

My beloved monster and me

We go everywhere together

Wearing a raincoat that has four sleeves

Gets us through all kinds of weather



She will always be the only thing

That comes between me and the awful sting

That comes from livin' in a a world that's so damn mean



My beloving monster she's tough

If she wants she will disrobe you

But if you lay her down for a kiss

Her little heart it could explode



She will always be the only thing

That comes between me and the awful sting

That comes from livin' in a world that's so damn... mean



Lalalala lala lala
