Monster in Paradise
Did you see the monster in paradise?
Oh boy, he was as cool as ice
You know me completely
We suffered defeat, we were lost

Did you see the twenty ton butterfly
Standing there, holding up the sky?
Get ready and grit your teeth
If you're standing underneath
That multicoloured ticket to an airplane
Look out, baby, it's hard to get

The monster in paradise
Shut your mouth, close your eyes
And run, run, run, run

Did you see the dog on the underground
Looking for the old body found?
We won a dog who bit my knee
There lies the penalty for stealing

Did you see the man on the high trapeze?
Now we know how to die with ease
Looking up at the master
He was going much faster then
Squirrel faced lady on the high tech wire
Look out, baby, it's the devil's fire
The monster in paradise
Shut your mouth, close your eyes
And run, run, run, run

Did you see the dog on the underground
Looking for the old body found?
We won a dog who bit my knee
There lies the penalty for stealing

Did you see the man on the high trapeze?
Now we know how to die with ease
Looking up at the master
He was going much faster then
Squirrel faced lady on the high tech wire
Look out, baby, it's the devil's fire

The monster in paradise
Shut your mouth, close your eyes
And run, run, run, run
