The Monarch’s First Ever Lyrics – based on Monty Python’s Life Of Brian

They walk down the corridor and unchain me from my cell

They say when I die when I go to heaven, first I go through hell

They take me to the cross, this is where I’m going to die

The only crime I’m guilty of, is believing in your god in the sky

If this god’s so powerful, why doesn’t he save me from this fate

I’m told to believe and love him, but now I’m full of hate

They hold me on the ground; wrap my head in thorns

They tell me I’m a fool to believe; at me they laugh and scorn

Oooo!

Hell rips through my body, drive the stake through my hands

There’s no chance of escape, my blood’s on the sand

My worst nightmare comes true, as they raise the cross

After hours of hanging in the sun, my powers of vision are lost

And those ancient tribes of prophets who told me to believe

Cause real love and understanding, of mankind shall receive

The vultures rip at my flesh, night time it does fall

Then people come to watch the Angel of Death, make a call

Raise the cross!

LEAD

They bring the torch forward, soon my body will burn

I lost from my mistake, the truth the people shall learn

That you don’t travel around, or you too shall die

Or don’t curse their god, or you too be crucified

Yeaauhh!

LEAD

Let’s go faster…

NAIL SOME SENSE INTO THEM
