Lyrics of 'Mono' by Courtney Love

Hey, hey
Hey yeah! We had everything
Vinyl and mono
And we looked the other way
Man, we were so dumb
Is this the part in the book that you wrote
Where I've gotta come and save the day?
Did you miss me?
Did you miss me?

Well they say that rock is dead
And they're probably right
Ninety nine girls in the pit
Did it have to come to this?

Oh God, you owe me one more song
So I can prove to you that I'm so much better than him
Oh God, please listen fast
Here comes the crash
We're gonna rise above
We've gotta smash it up
You won't abandon us again

Give us brilliant boys that we wanna fuck, man
Full of ecstasy, hard drugs and bad luck
Turn the lights back on
You burn so hard but you won't burn long

Three chords in your pocket tonight
Are you, you the one
With the spark to bring my punk rock back
And I don't think so

Oh God, I wanna hear you say
I wanna hear you say that you're sorry again
Oh God, you owe me one more song
So I could prove to you that I'm so much better than him
Oh God, I'd give you anything
To hear you say that I was right and you were wrong
Oh God, before I leave this life
Now an eightball isn't love
A hookers never gonna come
Just give it back to me
Blow out all of the lights tonight

Two million miles down the PCH
(And now he's gone)
I slashed his tires, I bled his brakes
(It had to be done)
Their hand job lies were just too cruel
(Yeah mercy was done)
We drowned them all in their swimming pools
Run away, run away, run away, yeah!

Now God, I wanna hear you say
I wanna hear you say that you were wrong again
Now God, I wanna hear you say
I wanna hear you say that I am so much better than him
Now God, you owe us one more song
Get out of my life, see this world as it really is
Is it just a sad slide show
Can't make a hooker come
And an eightball isn’t love
I need one thing that’s divine
Let me hear it tonight
Let me hear it tonight
I've gotta hear it tonight
You're gonna let me hear the last chords tonight, yeah
