A Monster - Nina Simone

What’s as big as a mountain and grows bigger everyday

Until it’s taller than the sky

It’s a monster, a monster

A monster lie

What can change happy lovers into hurt and lonely souls

Just as we are, you and I

It’s a monster, a monster

A monster lie

Gossip can be an ugly thing, tearing love like I was apart

How could you believe I was untrue, when I love you with all my heart

Darling, one silly rumor coming from two liar lips

Made you wanna say goodbye

It’s a monster, a monster

A monster lie

What’s as big as a mountain and grows bigger everyday

Until its taller than the sky

It’s a monster, a monster

A monster lie

What can change happy lovers into hurt and lonely souls

Just as we are, you and I

It’s a monster, a monster

A monster lie

Gossip can be an ugly thing, tearing love like I was apart

How could you believe I was untrue, when I love you with all my heart

Darling, one silly rumor coming from two liar lips

Made you wanna say goodbye

It’s a monster, a monster

A monster lie

It’s a monster, a monster

A monster lie

It’s a monster, a monster

A monster lie
