Mr Monotony - Sarah Brightman

Playin' on his slide-trombone

In a certain monotone

He was known as Mr. Monotony

Any pleasant interlude

That would mean a change of mood

Didn’t go with Mr. Monotony

Sometimes he would change the key

But the same dull melody

Would emerge from Mr. Monotony

Folks for miles would run away

Only one preferred to stay

She would come around and say:

«Have you got any monotony today?»

They got married as they should

And around the neighbourhood

She was known as Mrs. Monotony

They were happy as could be

And they raised a family

Six or seven little Monotonies

From another village came a snappy clarinetter

She heard him play and strange to say she liked him better

That was the end of Mr. Monotony

Oh, she refused him when he tried

Bringing her back to his side

She just answered when he cried:

«Have you got any monotony today?»

«Have you got any monotony today?»

«Have you got any monotony today?»

Bye, bye, Mr. Monotony

Mr. Monotony

Is that you?

Hey, Mr. Monotony ???

Oh, this playing is wonderful!

Oh, Mr. Monotony, I come back to you any time

Mr. Monotony, don’t go away

Surely I didn’t really mean it

Oh, Mr. Monotony, I need you back …
